Maison Seilhan

Maison Seilhan is a stone building in Toulouse organized around two courtyards with multiple sections. The rooms feature decorated ceilings and contain a medieval oratory for prayer.

The building was converted into a Dominican residence in the 13th century and later became the seat of an inquisitorial tribunal. It retained its original structure across several centuries.

The painted ceilings depict moments from the life of Saint Dominic and were created by an artist in the 1600s. These artworks shape how the rooms feel and tell religious stories across the walls.

The building is open to visitors on certain weekdays during set hours. It is easy to reach by public transportation, particularly near the local stations.

The house contains well-preserved wall paintings that depict religious and historical subjects. Visitors can see the artistic details that adorned the walls during the medieval and Renaissance periods.
