The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Bâtiment destiné à entreposer le fourrage, l'édifice fut réalisé en 1775, dans la partie nord de la promenade dite des Allées. Le fronton de la porte monumentale porte la date de 1775 sur un cartouche. Jusqu'en 1901, il se présentait avec des rampes en pente douce à chaque extrémité. Le magasin aux Allées est, aujourd'hui, isolé de son contexte militaire. Cependant, il offre un aspect saisissant avec sa porte monumentale. Il convient également de souligner l'esthétisme de sa construction, en particulier sa structure interne en bois qui crée des espaces intérieurs impressionnants.

Building intended to store fodder, the building was realised in 1775, in the northern part of the promenade called the Allées. The pediment of the monumental doorway bears the date of 1775 on a cartouche. Until 1901, it presented with gentle sloping ramps at each end. The store at the Allées is, today, isolated from its military context. However, it offers a striking appearance with its monumental door. It is also appropriate to emphasize the aestheticism of its construction, in particular its internal wooden structure which creates impressive interior spaces.
