The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Cette maison est liée à l'importance du bourg qui s'est constitué depuis le haut Moyen-Age, autour du château féodal. Le pignon sur rue est à encorbellement. Au rez-de-chaussée, la façade repose sur quatre poteaux corniers dont les sculptures soutiennent un linteau mouluré. Ces sculptures représentent Saint-Jacques, la Vierge, une Pietà, et Saint-Christophe.

History
This house is linked to the importance of the borough which became established since the early Middle Ages, around the feudal château. The gable on the street is corbelled. On the ground floor, the façade rests on four corner posts whose sculptures support a moulded lintel. These sculptures represent Saint James, the Virgin, a Pietà, and Saint Christopher.
