Hôtel de Villebresme

Blois, France

This town house was built at the end of the 15th century for one of the members of the Villebresme family, the owners of the château of Fougères-sur-Bièvre.
The residence has an unusual plan - two buildings stand on either side of the Rue Pierre-de-Blois and are linked by a timber-frame walkway.
Its decoration is gothic in style with small acrobats on the walkway brackets, a moulded window frame decorated with pendants and the figure of a monster at the end of the horizontal beam.
