The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Un des rares vestiges de l'architecture civile médiévale de la ville. La partie la plus intéressante est une cour dite gothique que l'on peut dater du 15e siècle. La façade sur rue est du 19e siècle, celle sur la cour arrière du 17e siècle. Dans l'angle sud-est de la cour, un escalier en vis du 17e siècle dessert les trois niveaux. Dans la cour, deux galeries en équerre couvertes en croisées d'ogives sont surmontées d'un étage charpenté. Les garde-corps des deux niveaux sont particulièrement travaillés.

History
One of the rare vestiges of the medieval civil architecture of the city. The most interesting part is a courtyard called the Gothic courtyard which can be dated to the 15th century. The façade on the street is from the 19th century, that on the rear courtyard from the 17th century. In the south-east corner of the courtyard, a spiral staircase from the 17th century serves the three levels. In the courtyard, two corner galleries covered with rib vaults are surmounted by a timber-framed storey. The railings of the two levels are particularly worked.
