Adam and Eve House
Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Nice, Nissa la Bella
At the corner of “rue de la barillerie” and “rue de la Poissonnerie”, you can admire the only remaining relic of the old tradition of painted houses. During the middle age and the Renaissance, it was common to sculpt bas-reliefs inspired by the Bible on one’s house. This fresco from 1584 depicts Adam and Eve chased out of Heaven and threatening each other with clubs! Popular legend in Nice has it that the fresco refers to the passionate domestic quarrels of its inhabitants. If this is true, it takes courage to sculpt that on his wall!
