The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette maison était située sur l'emplacement du siège de la paneterie royale, sur la place Gordaine, où se trouvaient les boucheries et poissonneries royales ainsi que le change, et qui constituait donc l'un des coeurs marchands de la cité. Elle a vraisemblablement été construite dans les années 1487-1490, après l'incendie, pour la famille Cadouet ou la famille André. Antoine André, potier d'étain, et sa femme, nièce d'un certain Hervé Cadouet, tenaient cette maison vers 1490.

This house was situated on the site of the seat of the royal pantry, on the place Gordaine, where the royal butcheries and fishmongers as well as the exchange were located, and which thus constituted one of the commercial hearts of the city. It was most likely built in the years 1487-1490, after the fire, for the Cadouet family or the André family. Antoine André, pewterer, and his wife, niece of a certain Hervé Cadouet, held this house around 1490.
