La Halle médiévale

The only building of this type in the Drôme. Rectangular in shape, it aligns 4 naves of 7 bays. The posts support a beautiful oak framework. It dates from the 15th century.

This exceptional building has been listed in the supplementary inventory of historic monuments since 1978 and was restored in 1986. In the centre of the building, the supports are absent and the narrow aisles give way to a large unitary space. Resting on molasse dice, the posts support a beautiful oak framework which still shows some assembly marks. The hall is crowned by a hipped roof, the original covering method of which is unknown. The northern slope of the roof has a modern opening. In some places, the trusses of the roof structure are supported by corbels in the walls of the houses.
