The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
La maison doit dater du milieu du 12e siècle. Elle présente des baies en plein cintre en façade. Au 13e siècle, un premier remaniement remplace les pleins cintres par des trèfles avec écoinçons timbrés de rosaces, et l'établissement de bandeaux à gorges profondes aux fenêtres des premier et second étages. Les fenêtres rectangulaires datent probablement du 16e siècle, ainsi que les bandeaux en lave.

History
The house should date from the middle of the 12th century. It presents round-arch openings on the façade. In the 13th century, a first alteration replaces the round arches with trefoils with spandrels charged with rosettes, and the establishment of bands with deep grooves to the windows of the first and second storeys. The rectangular windows probably date from the 16th century, as do the bands in lava stone.
