Maison Seilhan, Historical museum in Toulouse, France

The stone building contains multiple segments organized around two courtyards, with decorated ceilings and an oratory from medieval times.

The Maison Seilhan became the first Dominican community residence in 1215 when Bernard Seilhan transferred ownership to Dominique de Guzman.

The ceiling paintings by Balthasar-Thomas Moncornet illustrate fifteen scenes from Saint Dominique's life, created between 1648 and 1650.

The museum opens on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 2 PM to 6 PM, with access via Metro line B at Carmes station.

The building served as the Inquisition Tribunal headquarters from the 13th to 16th centuries, maintaining its original architectural elements.
