Hôtel de Roaldès, Medieval house in Cahors, France

The Hôtel de Roaldès displays a Renaissance facade with sculpted windows featuring prism-shaped bases, blooming roses, and decorated eaves along Rue des Pénitents.

The building gained recognition when King Henri IV stayed there during the Wars of Religion in 1580, following his capture of Cahors with Huguenot troops.

The architectural elements of the house represent the evolution of French domestic design from the late Middle Ages through the Renaissance period.

Located at 247 Quai Champollion in Cahors, the exterior of this historical monument can be viewed from the street, while the interior remains private.

The Roaldès family, who purchased the property in 1661, maintained ownership until 1880 and later repurchased it in 1912 for restoration work.
