Palais de justice de Rouen, Gothic courthouse in central Rouen, France

The Rouen courthouse exhibits Gothic architecture with Renaissance elements, featuring stone staircases, ornate windows, and detailed exterior decorations throughout its structure.

Built between 1499 and 1507, the structure transformed from the Échiquier de Normandie into the Parliament of Normandy in 1515 under François I's reign.

The building contains the Maison Sublime, a medieval Jewish structure from 1100 discovered beneath the east wing during excavations in 1976.

Located at 36 rue aux Juifs, the courthouse maintains its judicial functions while allowing visitors to explore its architectural elements during specific hours.

The west wing, completed in 1508, displays medieval characteristics with a Gothic façade that incorporates structural elements from different construction periods.
