Origin and history
The house located on the 3rd of Rue du Grand-Marché in Tours is an emblematic 15th century civil building. It is distinguished by its typical architecture of this period, with three floors on ground floor, the first of which is in corbellation. The gables, decorated with curved aisseliers, form a broken arch, characteristic of the late Gothic style.
Classified as a Historic Monument, this house was partially protected by order of 3 December 1954, specifically covering its facade and roof. Its exact address, 3 rue du Grand-Marché, is referenced in the Mérimée base under the code Insee 37261, confirming its anchoring in the department of Indre-et-Loire, in the region Centre-Val de Loire.
Available sources, including Monumentum, highlight its heritage interest, although the accuracy of its location is considered poor (note of 5/10). No information is provided on its current use, whether visit, rental or accommodation.
