Origin and history
This house, located at 65 rue du Mining in La Rochelle, dates from the 2nd quarter of the 18th century. It is representative of the civil architecture of this period in the region, marked by neat facades and decorative elements typical of the period. The building was partially protected by an inscription under the Historical Monuments on 27 June 1928, specifically covering its façade and arcade.
La Rochelle, the major port on the Atlantic coast, was then a dynamic economic centre, marked by maritime trade and cultural exchanges. The bourgeois houses of that time often reflected the prosperity of the owners, linked to port activities or local administration. This type of building, although apparently modest, played a role in the urban fabric by sheltering wealthy families or influential artisans.
Available data indicate an approximate location, with an accuracy considered "passible" (note 5/10). The exact address, 65 rue du Mining, is confirmed by the Merimée base, while GPS coordinates suggest an immediate proximity to number 67 of the same street. No information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, etc.), or on any historic owners or occupants.
