Galeries de Jaude, Commercial building at Place de Jaude, Clermont-Ferrand, France.

Galeries de Jaude is a commercial building with a steel structure clad in white stone and punctuated by large arched windows across two levels. It houses a department store today and forms a central landmark at Place de Jaude with extensive retail space.

Built in 1906 by architects Léon and Marcel Lamaizière, the Galeries de Jaude were a branch of the Nouvelles Galeries. The same architects enlarged the building in 1920. Major works in 1963 substantially altered the fourth floor, and in 1996–1997 it came under the Galeries Lafayette name, with facade work. It was listed as a monument historique in 2006.

The store opened as a branch of the Nouvelles Galeries chain, and in 1996–1997 it passed under the Galeries Lafayette name, which brought facade work. The carved inscription "GALERIES DE JAUDE" across the upper facade, above the arched windows with iron balcony railings, marks the building on Place de Jaude.

The building sits directly on Place de Jaude in the city center and is easily reached on foot. Visitors should come during normal business hours to explore the interior and see the architecture up close.

The building was enlarged in 1920 by the same architects, Léon and Marcel Lamaizière, who had built it in 1906. Major works in 1963 substantially altered the fourth floor, and the facade was reworked when the store passed under the Galeries Lafayette name in 1996 and 1997.
