Neo-Gothic palace, whose façade features a medallion of Joan of Arc, the lay saint.

At the end of the 19th century, the wealthy citizens of Saint-Etienne showed their wealth in the choice of architecture for their private mansions by opting for the eclectic style. Buildings in Saint-Etienne became taller and more monumental. The local elite, freed from their rural roots, displayed a luxurious lifestyle. Built in 1893-1894 by Marcel and Léon Lamaizière, the brick and stone mansion of the ribbon maker André-Thomas, known as Adrien David de Sauzéa (1856-1927), husband of Magdeleine Claudine Serre (1857-1943), in neo-Gothic style, influenced by the Italian Renaissance, is integrated into a tenement building.

In 1905, Etienne Mimard, an art lover and director of the Manufacture d'Armes et de Cycles, which later became Manufrance, a pioneering mail order company, bought this splendid mansion. A nationalist and anglophobe, he had a medallion of Joan of Arc, the "lay saint", beatified in 1909, sculpted on the façade. Well located, he walked every day to his factory, the Manufacture d'Armes et de Cycles, cours Fauriel.

A winter garden in this private mansion in Saint-Etienne has an exposed metal frame with decorative networks and very beautiful stained glass windows in an Art Nouveau style.

This building is a jewel in the crown of our architectural and historical heritage, full of delicacy, finesse and refinement.
