Hotel de Bohan
The Hôtel de Bohan is a Hôtel particulier , a profane city palace on the Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville in Bourg-en-Bresse in France .
location
The bright stone house is prominently located right next to the town hall and today houses various city administration offices. The Hôtel de Bohan stands at the western end of the approximately 120-meter-long Rue Notre Dame, at the eastern end of which is the Notre-Dame-de l'Annonciation de Bourg-en-Bresse cathedral . The house is structurally connected to the neighboring house on its south side. At its rear in the west it was later extended, the other two walls are free to face the public square. The foundation and outer walls as well as the roof structure have been a listed building since 1943.
history
The two-and-a-half-story building with a mansard roof was built in 1730, a good 30 years before the town hall was built, and belonged to a family of cavalry officers in the 18th century . The builders were Claude-Marie Loubat de Bohan (1714–1792), "Lieutenant pour le roi au gouvernement de la ville de Bourg-en-Bresse", and his wife Marie-Françoise-Charlotte de Saint-Germain.
The five-axis, centrally mirrored building with its central portal is richly decorated on its front. Between the ground floor and the first floor wrought iron fences are the major structure components, while a floor, the higher above the fighter arranged, tympanon -like upper window degrees are alternately elaborated half-round or pointed. The cornice is particularly unusual, the height of which turns into a window sill in the four windows, except for the central axis of the building.
