Hôtel de Bagis

François de Clary placed on the capitals of acanthus, eagles and suns which recall his coat of arms.

In 1855, Calvet-Besson completed the sculptures on the façade and placed the coat of arms of François de Clary and his monogram above the doors.

Nicolas Bachelier, according to the lease passed in 1537, designs four building blocks arranged in quadrilateral, open on a central courtyard.

Between 1609 and 1616, François de Clary caused the façades of the south buildings to be modified and was built on a courtyard by the construction of porticos.

Historians are still debating the age of this emblematic portal of the Toulouse Renaissance: dated 1538 and attributed to Nicolas Bachelier for some, from the beginning of the 17th century and from the workshop of Pierre Souffron for others, a more recent publication now suggests the decade 1550 and a resemblance with engravings of the fireplaces of the Château de Madrid (destroyed).
