This townhouse, built in the 18th century, was once the home of the salt tax collector – that is to say, the residence of the official in charge of the salt storehouse, which stood not far from the townhouse.

It played a role in the development of the Chouannerie. This is evidenced by the ‘Chouan hideout’ located inside the townhouse.

It covers an area of approximately 380 sqm excluding the attic and is accessed via two staircases: a main quarter-turn staircase with balusters, and a service staircase. The main façade faces east. A charming arched doorway, surmounted by a transom window and framed by Doric pilasters, invites us to enter the house.
