Hotel Gautier de Sibert

Probably dating from before 1537, it is one of the few houses in Tonnerre to have escaped the fire of 1556, as recalled by the inscription engraved on the street side: "1556-DOMINE SALVA NOS PERIMUS" ("Lord, save us, we are dying"). During the 18th century, the building belonged to the noble Desnoyers family, yet it is under the name of Hôtel Gauthier de Sibert that it is identified in local memory. This can be explained by the fact that in 1793, at the height of the Revolution, Abbé Gauthier de Sibert held secret religious services here.
