Timeline

Origin and history

The house located at 28 rue Fécauderie in Auxerre is a listed historical monument, the most remarkable of which dates back to the thirteenth century. It is distinguished by its cornel pole and console sandblasters, supporting a corbelled floor. These architectural details, characteristic of the medieval period, led to its classification by decree on 28 April 1925 for these specific elements, followed by an inscription of the facades and roofs on 15 May 1925.

Auxerre, a town located in the Yonne in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, preserves a rich medieval heritage, marked by wood-paned houses and corbelled structures. These buildings reflect the urban and artisanal organization of the time, where the protruding floors allowed to optimize space in narrow streets. The protection of this type of monument illustrates the desire to preserve traditional construction techniques and local history.

The location of the house, although specified in the Merimée and Monumentum bases, remains approximate according to the available sources, with an address indicated sometimes as 28 rue Ferauderie, sometimes as 28 bis. This ambiguity reflects the challenges of historical documentation for ancient buildings, often modified or renamed over the centuries. No information is available on its current use, whether it be visits, rentals or accommodation.
