Maison du Barry, historic house in Lévignac, Haute-Garonne, France

Maison du Barry is an 18th-century brick house in Lévignac, Haute-Garonne, typical of Toulouse architecture. Its two-storey central block has a triangular pediment with a circular emblem, an arched central doorway with glass doors, and an arched window with a small balcony above. Round-arched French doors with light shutters line the ground floor, rectangular shuttered windows the upper floor, and a wing to the right has an open colonnade of rectangular pillars on its upper level.

The house was built in the 18th century by the Du Barry family and reflects the architectural style of this period in the Toulouse region. In the 19th century, two side wings in Troubadour Gothic style were added, reflecting the architectural heritage of the south.

The house reflects local Occitan architecture through its characteristic brick walls and classical details typical of the region. The Du Barry family left their mark on this building, which today testifies to the everyday life and habits of multiple generations who lived here.

The house is located in a quiet part of Lévignac, slightly outside the center, and can be viewed from the outside. It is a private residence, so only the exterior is accessible, but the classical brick walls and architectural details are clearly visible.

The house was built in brick in the Toulouse manner, and its two side wings date from the 19th century, added a century after the main block. It received the title of monument historique in 1980 and remains a private property, so the facade is seen from the lawn outside.
