Hostellerie de la Croix d'Or

Hostellerie de la Croix d'Or, Medieval restaurant and historic monument in Provins, France.

Hostellerie de la Croix d'Or is a restaurant at 1 rue des Capucins in Provins, whose walls and facade date from 1264–1270. The light stone facade rises to a steep gable, with a row of tall pointed Gothic blind arches across the upper level. Below the leftmost arch is a rectangular window with dark muntins, and to its right a flat panel; the word "HOTEL" is carved in raised capitals along the base.

The building originates from the late 13th century and was first documented as an inn operated by Henry Le Hasteux in the late 16th century. This progression shows how the structure evolved from a lodging station into an established dining destination over several centuries.

The name Croix d'Or (Golden Cross) marks it as an inn, and the building has served travellers since at least 1575, when Henry Le Hasteux is recorded as innkeeper. In 1622 Jehan des Rieux took over the shop, offering his kitchen, pantry, pastry bakehouse and cellar. The raised "HOTEL" inscription on the facade recalls this lodging past.

The establishment is located on Rue des Capucins in Provins' old town area and is easily accessible on foot. Reservations are recommended, particularly during peak times, to secure a table comfortably.

The facade was listed as a monument historique on 17 April 1931. Look for the raised "HOTEL" lettering along the base, a trace of the building's long role as an inn; the first recorded innkeeper was Henry Le Hasteux in 1575.
