The Ministère de la Culture's notice

En 1874, la maison Cusenier se développe grâce aux usines et comptoirs établis dans les grandes villes de France. Entre 1881 et 1885, l'établissement d'Ornans prend sa forme actuelle (construction du logement patronal en 1882, et de la distillerie en 1885). Le corps principal, au fond d'une cour encadrée par les deux ailes de communs et dépendances, comporte un étage de soubassement. L'étage au niveau du jardin a conservé ses décors d'origine. Ensemble complet de vitraux de Gorgeon.

In 1874, the Cusenier company developed thanks to factories and trading posts established in the major cities of France. Between 1881 and 1885, the establishment at Ornans takes its present form (construction of the owner's residence in 1882, and of the distillery in 1885). The main building, at the far end of a courtyard framed by the two wings of outbuildings and dependencies, comprises a basement storey. The storey at garden level has retained its original decorations. Complete ensemble of stained glass windows by Gorgeon.
