Maison du Boulanger, 16th-century historic house in Troyes, France
The Maison du Boulanger is a 16th-century house in Troyes decorated with intricate wooden beams and carved details. The structure displays typical medieval architecture of the Champagne region with half-timbered walls and decorative elements across its facade.
The Maison du Boulanger was built in the 16th century. Its facades and roofs were listed as a monument historique inscrit by decree of 6 December 1958, a lower level of protection than classification.
The name "La maison du boulanger" appears in white lettering on the black square hanging sign between the two ground-floor shopfronts, which are framed by dark wood posts. The facade carries round decorative spheres fixed to the timbering, two woven ones on the upper left and red and pale blue ones elsewhere.
The exterior can be viewed from Rue Champeaux at any time without restriction. For interior access, it is best to contact the Troyes Tourism Office in advance to learn about availability and visiting conditions.
The facade and roof were listed as a monument historique inscrit by decree of 6 December 1958, a protection status rather than classification. The black hanging sign between the two shopfronts reads "La maison du boulanger" and "16ème siècle", giving the building its name and construction century.
