Building corresponding to two architectural units whose façades today present an appearance of the 18th and 19th centuries. Inside, two ceilings of the years 1451-1452, on the ground floor and first floor of the building block between courtyards. The ground floor ceiling has retained its painted decoration on filler boards (fantastic bestiary, religious scenes, scenes of daily life, gallant scenes...). The floor ceiling has been covered with grey-blue wash allowing by place a painted decoration to appear.
