Maison des Consuls, Gothic residence in Périgueux, France
The Maison des Consuls displays ornate architectural features including machicolations, mullioned windows, and gargoyles adorning its Gothic facade along the Isle River.
Built in the 15th century, this medieval house gained monument historique status in 1889, though it never served as the city's consulate despite its name.
The building exemplifies the architectural preferences of medieval French merchants who constructed elaborate residences to demonstrate their social position and wealth.
Following renovation works completed in 2016, the historical structure now contains eleven high-end apartments available for residential rental.
The hexagonal tower at the rear of the building contains a spiral staircase and connects to neighboring structures through a continuous line of machicolations.
