Morestel house and shop
Presentation
This 15th-century house had a shop on the ground floor with a stand where the shopkeeper could display his goods. Worth noting: two large bay windows with mullions and crosspieces on the upper floor.
Only the street-side façade of this building is accessible to the public.
More like drainage channels than alleyways, the narrow passages between the houses allow the evacuation of wastewater, just like the drainage sink on the outside wall of the Library. These passages also provide a level of fire protection which is quite important because of the difficulty of accessing water in the heart of the old town.
