The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'édifice existait au 17e siècle. La façade fut reconstruite ou remaniée à la fin du 18e siècle. En arrière de la façade, l'immeuble comporte deux cours intérieures. La porte d'entrée est encadrée de refends et porte, au linteau cintré, une clef décorée d'une tête de femme dans un cartouche enroulé. Les vantaux sont à grands panneaux dont l'encadrement supérieur ondulé comporte un petit décor de feuillages. Au-dessus, le balcon droit se compose de trois panneaux. Le panneau central dispose des spires et volutes à rebroussements autour d'un médaillon ovale, contenant un monogramme, et deux ancres entrecroisées. Chaque panneau latéral comporte un grand fleuron, avec un pétale axial double et anguleux et des volutes bouclées. L'encadrement double est garni d'une grecque. Dans les angles, petits médaillons en tôle. Main-courante sans boules aux angles.

The building existed in the 17th century. The façade was rebuilt or remodeled at the end of the 18th century. Behind the façade, the building has two interior courtyards. The entrance door is framed by rustication and bears, on the arched lintel, a key decorated with a woman's head in a rolled cartouche. The door leaves have large panels whose upper curved framing includes a small leafage decoration. Above, the straight balcony consists of three panels. The central panel has spirals and volutes with reversions around an oval medallion, containing a monogram, and two crossed anchors. Each side panel has a large fleuron, with a double angular axial petal and curled volutes. The double framing is furnished with a Greek key pattern. In the corners, small sheet metal medallions. Handrail without knobs at the corners.
