Maison de Jeanne, the Glossary

Index Maison de Jeanne

Maison de Jeanne is a 15th century house in Sévérac-le-Château, Aveyron, France. It was named for the last known owner of the building and is thought to be one of the oldest houses in Aveyron. The unique appearance of the structure is due to the larger dimensions of the upper floors, which look large compared to the smaller footprint of the first floor.[1]
