One of the oldest houses in Baume-les-Dames, built in 1574, and which will undoubtedly catch your eye with its corbelled turret. You can read two inscriptions in Latin meaning "Let this house stand until the ant finishes drinking the waves of the sea and the turtle wanders the earth" and "Times are changing and we with them". Another is also found on the lintel of the door and means "Peace to this house".
You can now sleep in this house because it accommodates gîtes.
