The date of construction (1700), the emblem of the profession (mallet and davits) and the initials of the owners appear on a wooden cartouche in the oriel.
Classified as a historic monument in 1924, this half-timbered building is decorated in the Renaissance style (scales, foliage, acanthus leaves).
In 1854, the commune acquired the house, which became the corps de garde in 1861, in other words, the headquarters of the night watchman, and later of the appariteur.
