The window of the 15th century: inscription by decree of 27 January 1928
Origin and history
The house in Loudun, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, is a 15th-century civil building. It is representative of the urban buildings of this period, marked by functional architecture and sober decorative elements, as evidenced by its classified window.
The monument was partially protected by an inscription under the title of Historic Monuments in 1928, more precisely for its 15th century window. This official recognition underscores its heritage interest, although the information available on its detailed history or occupants remains limited.
The exact address, 18 rue de la Porte-Saint-Nicolas, places this building in the historic centre of Loudun, a city whose heritage reflects the architectural and urban evolutions of the Middle Ages. The location, noted as "passible" in the sources, suggests an approximate identification, without absolute precision.
In medieval times, houses like this often served as housing for local artisans, merchants or notables. They played a central role in everyday life, hosting both professional and domestic activities. Their preservation makes it possible today to study the lifestyles and construction techniques of this period.
Available data, mainly from the Merimée database and Monumentum, do not provide information on any owners, sponsors or significant events related to this building. Only the protection of the window in 1928 is a documented historical landmark.
No information is given on the current accessibility of the monument, whether it is a visit, rental or accommodation. Sources focus on its location and legal status, without addressing its contemporary use.
