Comment

The museum is housed in the town's oldest civil building, the Hôtel de Cheusses, built in the early 17th century1. The hotel served as the seigneurial dwelling of the châtelain de Rochefort. After the arsenal was founded in 1666, it became home to the Command, then the Naval Intendancy and, in the 19th century, the Naval Commissariat.https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mus%C3%A9e_national_de_la_Marine_de_Rochefort
