The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Cette maison a été construite après l'incendie de 1487. L'étage inférieur est divisé en compartiments par des poteaux de bois octogones à chapiteaux moulurés et bases buticulaires. Une poutre moulurée sépare les étages et permet la saillie du second sur le premier. La porte en bois est ornée de choux frisés. L'accolade, au lieu de se terminer par un fleuron, est coiffée par une touffe de feuillages qui forment capuchon.

History
This house was built after the fire of 1487. The lower storey is divided into compartments by octagonal timber posts with moulded capitals and bulbous bases. A moulded beam separates the storeys and allows the projection of the second over the first. The wooden door is ornamented with curled cabbage leaves. The accolade, instead of terminating in a finial, is crowned by a tuft of foliage which forms a hood.
