Henri IV's House
This house was built by Claude Paterin in the time of François I. The raised courtyard was formerly closed on all four sides, but the widening of the Montée Saint-Barthélémy and the construction of the Saint-Paul/Loyasse funicular in the second half of the 19th century led to the destruction of part of the Renaissance buildings. Even so the house remains an impressive sight with its wide-arched galleries, spiral staircase and pump well. The bust of Henri IV, which gives its name to the house, dates from the 19th century.
