Covered gallery (cad. 789): inscription by order of 25 June 1929

Origin and history

The Nayrac House is part of an iconic architectural ensemble of Mirepoix, known as Les Couverts. These houses with covered galleries, typical of medieval cities in southern France, form a sheltered passage for pedestrians. Their wooden and stone structure reflects the region's traditional construction techniques.

Ranked a historic monument by decree of 25 June 1929, the covered gallery of the house Nayrac (referenced under cadastre 789) illustrates the heritage importance of these public spaces in local urban planning. Although the sources do not specify its original use, this type of building often served as a commercial space or a place of sociability for the inhabitants.

Located Place Maréchal Leclerc, its exact address and GPS location confirm its integration into the historic heart of Mirepoix. The cartographic accuracy, noted as fair (5/10), suggests an approximate location, without further detail on its current state or possible contemporary functions (visit, accommodation, etc.).
