History

Building reconstructed around 1660, at the location of a medieval house from the 14th century of which traces remain on the street façade (arch, medieval heads). The façade was reworked to regularize it around the entrance axis, the façades onto the courtyard incorporating the well were recomposed in a spirit of symmetry and a staircase with four cores was installed, its ceiling decorated with stucco, close to Italian tradition. The current façade dates from work carried out in 1773. The salon decorated with wainscoting and plasterwork was executed at the same period. In the 19th century, a wooden gallery was installed on the courtyard façade to avoid crossing the reception rooms. The west wing comprises a staircase serving all levels and, on the first floor, a bedroom with an alcove as well as a small salon decorated with plasterwork and wainscoting.
