From a quiet street with remarkable architecture, an ancient path of the laundresses, a wrought iron gate opens onto a planted courtyard, around which the residence and the former school are organized. The property is backed by the ramparts and the walkway of the historic center. Over the centuries, it has been the seat of a great local family, whose members were ennobled and contributed to the defense of the city during the Fronde. The prosperous periods of trade, reinforced by advantageous alliances and marriages, have left the building with a rich painted decor, still visible today.The site was sold to the municipality in 1890 to become the Jules Ferry school, with accommodations for teachers, classrooms, and a refectory. It first operated as a girls' school, then for boys, before playing a role in the life of the unions. Every year, during Heritage Days, the building is highlighted and remains an emblematic place of the city's working-class history. Two tourist lodgings have been created beside the main building.This description has been automatically translated from French.
