House with rooms dedicated to the history of trade, travel, and the port

Rescued from the bombardments, the Maison de l’Armateur is one of Le Havre’s most beautiful buildings. Built around 1790 by architect Paul-Michel Thibault (1735-1799), it was bought by shipowner Martin Foäche in 1800. Its originality lies in its octagonal skylight, around which the rooms are distributed over 5 floors. You’ll discover objects and furniture from everyday life, as well as rooms dedicated to the history of trade, travel and the port, including a fine collection of nautical charts. A must-see!

Dans ce quartier du port loin des immeubles Perret , cette visite permet à la fois de découvrir des aménagements intérieurs d'une grande qualité et de mieux comprendre la vie à cette époque dans cette maison grâce aux documents exposés .

Tres belle visite. Le lieu est superbe et rare, et la maison a elle seule merite le détour si on est féru d architecture. La visite guidee est un plus. La maison de l armateur est aussi ouverte aux journees du patrimoine. Deambuler dans le quartier autour de la maison permet de bien s impregner de l ambiance du quartier ouvrier du port du havre.

J'ai bien aimé cette maison en colimaçon. Je pense que pour l'apprécier, il faut faire la visite avec le guide. Car l'exposition temporaire m'a un peu déroutée car sans trop de rapport avec l'armateur.
