Pharmacie Lesage

Pharmacie Lesage is a limestone pharmacy building with architectural features from the early 1900s, known for its fine ironwork details. The building still houses an operating pharmacy while preserving its original floral tile work and period furniture from that era.

The building was constructed in 1901 for Georges Lesage, who worked as both a pharmacist and mayor, and was designed by architect François Rouvray. Its facades and roofs received historical monument status in 1975.

The facades show typical design elements of an early 1900s pharmacy building that still shape the street's character today. Visitors can observe these crafted details like the floral tiles when walking past.

The building is centrally located and easy to reach on foot. Since it still operates as a working pharmacy, visitors should keep this in mind when admiring the exterior appearance and architectural details.

The building is recognized by experts as one of the last examples of a distinct architectural style from the early 1900s. This distinction was confirmed through administrative court decisions that underscored the place's importance.
