Mansions and private mansions to visit Central

The Hotel des Échevins was built in 1489, on a space "released" by the great fire of 1487. He draws on the Gallo-Roman wall of Bourges. It is an essential monument to the city. At night during Night Nights it offers a magical setting to the projections on its stone walls. A rectangular rectangular body includes on the ground floor the large hall equipped with a monumental fireplace and the board of the jury vaulted stone and the fire test. The Hotel des Échevins was the headquarters of the municipality for three centuries. Its interior is just as interesting as its walls. Many sculpted decorations celebrate Berry's sheep, whose wool was so important to the city's wealth and influence. This Gothic style building was influenced by the decoration of the Jacques Coeur Palace: arches in accolade, pinacles, frayed cabbage. The false windows of sculpted characters adorning the octagonal tower will be delighted: These are sergeants of town that go to the pass. Admiring them will entertain children. In 1624, a new gallery body inspired by the Renaissance architecture treaties was added to the existing building. The Hotel des Échevins has been completely restored. It was built in a museum and now offers visitors to discover the works of the painter Maurice Estève, from Culan.

The hotel de Scevolles is one of the beautiful old buildings of the city. In a large paved courtyard, overlooking a garden at the door of the covered market, there is an old classic well with its pulley, as well as a whistle above the door. Surround the wrought iron grid that opens onto the garden, a medallion in Scevolles' family. This place is responsible for history!

Built in the th century, it is located in Duperthuis street. His tower tower gives him the appearance of an old castle of fairy tales.
