Maison du Médecin Huvé, Historical house in Chartres, France
The Maison du Médecin Huvé displays carved stonework and decorative pilasters across its Renaissance-era limestone facade at 10 Rue Noël-Ballay.
French architect Philibert Delorme designed this residence in the early 16th century for Claude Huvé, a physician who wanted to contribute to city development.
The building features a Latin inscription beneath the first-floor window, reflecting the intellectual and architectural traditions of Renaissance France.
The structure now houses Librairie l'Esperluète, a bookstore open to visitors interested in exploring both literature and historical architecture.
A stone cartouche on the facade states the building's purpose: for city beautification and future generations, marking its role in urban planning.
