The mansion Boysson (also called Cheverry or Boysson-Cheverry) is located Malcousinat Street in the historic center of Toulouse.
It was built between 1463 and 1468 by Huc of Boysson, a wealthy merchant became sheriff (municipal magistrate) and revised and enlarged after its acquisition in 1535 by John Cheverry, whose career was identical to the first owner, trader and capitoul.
This is why the building has a share of the fifteenth century Gothic elements and Renaissance elements of the sixteenth.
Rearrangements have been allocated over the centuries, the mansion still has its street entrance where Malcousinat gives an eighteenth century building. It then accesses a courtyard where are located a house with gothic elements and the chapter tower with battlements and a second overlooked by buildings with an arcaded gallery supported by columns of stone Doric style, decorative elements and Renaissance windows. It also notes a low room with a vault of sixteen ribs with cross double warhead.
Historical Monument, the mansion was the subject of a restoration in the state of the art and now houses the House of Occitania which brings together associations working to radiation from the language of Occitan culture.
Animations, exhibitions and shows are regularly offered.
