The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice du 16e siècle dont la façade a été refaite au 19e. L'accès aux étages s'effectue par un corridor étroit, sous ogives par endroits, conduisant à une tourelle pentagonale arasée. La tourelle comprend 137 marches et est haute de huit étages. Les ogives de la galerie sont portés, au rez-de-chaussée, par un chapiteau arrondi à cannelures formant culot et, à l'extérieur, aux étages supérieurs, par des colonnes cannelées en forme de pilastres à chapiteaux corinthiens. La porte d'entrée de la tourelle est à voussure arrondie et console centrale. La cour intérieure est intégralement obstruée par une construction reliant la boulangerie de façade aux four et dépôt qui suivent, sous voûte d'arête.

16th-century building whose façade was redone in the 19th century. Access to the upper storeys is by a narrow corridor, under ribs in places, leading to a flattened pentagonal turret. The turret comprises 137 steps and is eight storeys high. The ribs of the gallery are carried, on the ground floor, by a rounded capital with fluting forming a corbel and, on the exterior, at the upper storeys, by fluted columns in the form of pilasters with Corinthian capitals. The entrance door of the turret has a rounded archivolt and central console. The interior courtyard is entirely obstructed by a construction connecting the front bakery to the oven and store that follow, under a groin vault.
