Origin and history
The house in Figeac, in the Lot, is a remarkable historical monument by its juxtaposition of buildings from various periods. The ensemble is built around an inner courtyard and includes a 12th century Romanesque house, a 14th century porch, a hotel dating from the second half of the 16th or early 17th century, as well as a gallery from the late 17th or early 18th century. These elements illustrate the architectural evolution over centuries, from the Middle Ages to the modern era.
The building was partially protected by an order of 26 October 1995, covering facades, roofs, courtyard and a 17th century staircase. Although the sources do not specify its original use, this residence reflects the urban transformations of Figeac, a city marked by its medieval and reborn heritage. Its address, 47 rue Gambetta, places the monument in the heart of a historic district, as evidenced by GPS coordinates and the Insee code of the municipality (46102).
The location of the monument is estimated with a "passible" accuracy (note 5/10), suggesting minor uncertainties about its exact location. No information is available on its current accessibility, whether it be visits, room rental or accommodation. The data are mainly from the Merimée database and Monumentum, without reference to sponsors or specific historical events related to this site.
