[FR] La maison à pans de bois, appelée aussi maison de marchands, date de la fin du XVème siècle. Elle repose sur une vaste cave voûtée possédant un puits intérieur. La façade sur rue est classée, l’espace situé en avant constituait autrefois la place du marché. Les poteaux supportant l’étage sont sculptés de personnages pour la plupart à caractère religieux.
