The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette demeure, construite pour un artisan ayant boutique et pignon sur rue, a été élevée après l'incendie de 1487, au début du 16e siècle. Au rez-de-chaussée, quatre montants en bois formant colonnes constituent l'armature de la boutique, les deux centraux encadrant la porte avec imposte. La traverse haute est reliée aux colonnettes par une moulure formant retombée. La partie gauche de la façade renfermait la boutique tandis qu'à droite une entrée charretière permettait de desservir la cour. La maison s'adosse à l'enceinte de la vieille ville.

This dwelling, built for a craftsman having a shop and gable on the street, was raised after the fire of 1487, in the early 16th century. On the ground floor, four wooden uprights forming columns constitute the framework of the shop, the two central ones framing the door with its lintel. The upper crosspiece is linked to the small columns by a moulding forming a return. The left part of the façade contained the shop while on the right a carriage entrance allowed access to the courtyard. The house backs onto the wall of the old town.
