Origin and history

The house in Charlieu, in the Loire department (region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes), is a 16th century civil building. It illustrates Renaissance home architecture, a period marked by artistic renewal and relative economic prosperity in the region. This type of construction reflects the evolution of urban lifestyles, with often decorated facades and more comfortable interior arrangements.

Ranked as a Historic Monument by the list of 1889, this house bears witness to the heritage importance accorded by the 19th century to old buildings, even non-religious or military. Its precise address, 22 rue Farinat (formerly rue Chevroterie), and its Insee code (42052) confirm its anchoring in the urban fabric of Charlieu. The location, noted as "a priori satisfactory" (level 7/10), allows to consider a visit or architectural study.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum database, highlight its protected status but do not provide details of its current use (visit, rental, etc.).
