Origin and history
The houses in Henuville, Normandy, date from the 16th century and are identified as a Historic Monument. Their particularity lies in their twin doors, a typical architectural element of this period, which led to their inscription by ministerial decree on 10 September 1937. These houses are located precisely on the road between Saint-Martin-de-Boscherville and Duclair, in the Seine-Maritime department (76), in the Normandy region.
The inscription under the title of Historical Monuments concerns only the twin doors of the two houses, highlighting their heritage value. Although their original use is not detailed in the sources, this type of construction often reflects the social and economic organization of the Normandy countryside in the 16th century, where half-timbered or stone houses were used both as housing and sometimes as agricultural or artisanal activities.
Available contact information places these houses at the approximate address of the 900 Route de Duclair, in the town of Hénuville (code Insee 76354). Their location is considered satisfactory, with an estimated map accuracy of 6-8 on a scale of 10. No information is provided on their current accessibility, whether visitation, rental or accommodation.
The sources mentioned, including Monumentum and the internal data of the Merimée database, do not provide additional details on owners, architects or specific historical events related to these houses. Their heritage protection remains focused on the remarkable architectural elements of the twin doors, characteristic of the era.
