Façade with bas-relief de la Sirène on Rue de la Barillerie and cover: inscription by order of 15 October 1931

Origin and history

The house in Le Mans, in the Sarthe department in the Pays de la Loire region, is a historical monument whose particularity lies in its facade adorned with a bas-relief representing a Sirene. This architectural detail, located on Rue de la Barillerie, led to its inscription under the title of Historical Monuments by order of 15 October 1931. The protected element also includes the building's coverage, highlighting its heritage interest despite an approximate geographical location in available sources.

Practical information about this house remains limited, but its official address according to the Mérimée base is 2 rue Marchande, although GPS coordinates suggest instead 1 rue de la Barillerie. This gap illustrates the precision challenges often encountered in the documentation of ancient monuments. The house, although classified, does not have extensive historical details in current sources, such as its sponsor, its exact construction period or its original use.
