Origin and history
The house at 1 quai Clémenceau in La Charité-sur-Loire is a civil building built in the 18th century. This building, whose facades and roofs on the street are protected, illustrates the bourgeois domestic architecture of this period in the region. Its listing in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 17 February 1972 bears witness to its heritage interest, although the available sources do not specify its original use or any significant owners.
La Charité-sur-Loire, located in the Nièvre department in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, was in the modern era a dynamic city, marked by its role as a river and commercial crossroads. Bourgeois houses like this reflect the prosperity of some local families, often linked to trade, crafts or administrative burdens. These dwellings, often aligned along the main wharfs or streets, contributed to urban beautification and the affirmation of the social status of their occupants.
The protected elements of this house, namely its facades and roofs on the street, suggest special attention to their aesthetic or historical value. Registration under the Historical Monuments is intended to preserve these features, although the accessible archives do not detail the precise criteria for this protection. The approximate location, noted as "passable" in the Merimée base, indicates that uncertainties remain as to its exact location or detailed history.
