Origin and history

The house at 106 Malpalu Street in Rouen is a 17th-century civil building. It is representative of the domestic architecture of this period, marked by often decorated facades and characteristic sloped roofs. This type of construction reflects the urban boom of Rouen, the major city of Normandy, whose architectural heritage enriched during the modern era, thanks in particular to river and maritime trade.

Classified as a Historical Monument, this house was partially protected by order of 30 April 1956, specifically covering its street façade and roof slope. This preservation measure underscores its heritage interest, although available sources do not specify the details of its history or occupants. The location in the historic Rouen district suggests a dense urban context, where the houses of that time often served as housing for local merchants or artisans.
