Description
It is a small rectangular building with a roof in a pavilion. He has a ground floor and an overhanging floor on the side of the river, as well as a gallery with balustrade on the city side. The floor includes a piece which is covered by a wooden -style wooden arch, decorated with allegorical painted scenes evoking the four parts of the world, inspired by the iconology of Cesare Ripa. These decorations date back to the period between 1685 and 1696. Originally, the lodge was a rather simple structure used to store harvests and tools, but in Montbéliard, these lodges turned into real leisure pavilions.
