Façade : inscription by order of 8 July 1942

Origin and history

The house located at 71 rue Meaulens in Arras is a 18th century civil building. It was classified as a Historic Monument for its façade, protected by ministerial decree on 8 July 1942. This building reflects the architectural characteristics of the time in the region, which was marked by increasing urbanization and the influence of classical styles.

Arras, the town of Pas-de-Calais in the Hauts-de-France region, was an important economic and administrative centre in the 18th century. The bourgeois houses of this period bear witness to the city's prosperity, linked in particular to the textile trade and its role as a military place. This type of building generally served as a residence for wealthy families or local notables, thus participating in the social structure of the city.
