House formerly called the red lion, it was rebuilt in 1668 by André Saudherr. It comprises two storeys above a ground floor which has been modernized, from which the old arcades, which still existed towards the end of the last century, have disappeared. The gable, facing onto the Grand'Rue, comprises two further storeys, opening through windows and surmounted by a round opening, it is crowned by a curious sculpture, representing, half-length a Twin, pipe in mouth, dressed in the bourgeois fashion of the end of the 17th century. The windows have mullions. The storeys are emphasized by mouldings. Corner oriel supported by two carved consoles. Its faces are decorated with carved ornaments.
