Recent agricultural use within ~100 m: Permanent pasture (2024).
Soil can vary significantly within 100 m. For vegetable growing, a local soil test (pH, organic matter, NPK, and heavy metals if the site borders a road or former vineyard or orchard) typically costs €50 to €150 at a French agronomy lab such as Auréa, LCA, or SADEF. We recommend one before planting edibles.

A protected monument perimeter (Cathédrale Notre-Dame) exists in this commune. Confirm whether this specific parcel sits inside it. If it does, visible exterior changes (windows, roof, facade materials) need approval from the Architecte des Bâtiments de France (ABF), typically adding 2 to 6 months. Verify with the mairie.
