Remarkable sites and monuments

Last updated date : 26/08/2026

Driveway vaulted on intersecting ribs, amazing courtyard with beautiful galleries from the 16th century. There is also a small balcony which has retained its mechanism. The staircase without core is remarkable.

This courtyard is included in the list of 50 courtyards and traboules covered by the agreement. The Cour/Traboule Agreement, adopted in July 1990, stipulates that the City and the Urban Community contribute towards the costs of maintenance, cleaning and lighting of the premises in return for a right of public pedestrian access through these private traboules and courtyards, 365 days a year between 7 am and 7 pm. The owners also agree to allow the City to affix an explanatory information plaque at the entrance to the courtyard or traboule, and a plaque asking visitors to respect the peace and cleanliness of the premises.
Please note that some courtyards and traboules may be temporarily closed.
