Origin and history

This house, located at 52 rue du Commerce in Lons-le-Saunier, dates from the 4th quarter of the 17th and 18th centuries. It is representative of the civil architecture of this period in the region, with a facade inscribed as Monument Historic by decree of 2 December 1926. Its location in the city centre, in the Jura department, reflects the town planning of the time.

The houses of this time in Burgundy-Franche-Comté often served as residences for bourgeois families or merchants, participating in the local economic life. Their architecture, combining tradition and new influences, reflects cultural exchanges and social developments in the region. These buildings, although sometimes small in appearance, played a central role in the structuring of cities.

The protection of the façade in 1926 underscores the heritage importance of this type of construction. The precise location, confirmed by the GPS coordinates and the address recorded in the Merimée base, makes it possible to identify this monument as a key element of the Lédonian heritage. The Creative Commons license associated with the available photos facilitates its dissemination and enhancement.
