Maison du bailliage, Amiens, Historic administrative building in Amiens, France.

The Maison du Bailliage displays Renaissance architecture with mullioned windows and medallion sculptures adorning its preserved facade from 1541.

The building functioned as the royal justice headquarters until the French Revolution, with its name originating from mallum publicum, denoting justice assembly.

The facade sculptures by Matthieu Laigniel feature male and female busts surrounded by leaves and fruits, representing Renaissance artistic elements.

Located at 10 Passage du Baillage in central Amiens, the building now houses the city's financial services department.

Only the original facade survived German bombings in 1940, which was later integrated into a new structure after World War II.
