In the XVth century, the civil servants of the duchy, as well as people of justice had invested the Rue du Chastel and the Place de l'Ancien Palais that the houses of the proclamation edged and where the Duke sold his wine in the month of August. One of these houses, rebuilt in the XVIIth century, shelters today the Musée de la Société d'Emulation du Bourbonnais. 3 rue de l'Ancien Palais, you will discover a half-timbered house, composed of stones and flaps of wood, dating the XVth century. The urban landscape of Moulins consists of several houses to flaps of wood of the end of the XVth century. Situated to the angle of two streets, the verticality of this one is accentuated by the gable protected by the structure in wood. Otherwise, a sculpted decor is present in the different levels of elevation of this house. The most considerable element is a frieze of the XVIth century, composed of métopes and triglyphes. The métopes is decorated of motives evoking the ancient animal sacrifice : the bucranes (skulls of bovines) alternate with patens (containers intended to receive the blood of the animals victims). The motives of this frieze were distributed in different treaties of architecture. This house belonged in Lorin of the Bars, ducal officer and argentier of Duke Charles 1st of Bourbon.
Un petit groupe d'architectes et d'entrepreneurs, spécialisés dans la rénovation d'immeubles et de belles propriétés, regrettaient de jeter de vieux objets, témoins d'une époque. A chaque démolition, lorsqu'un lavabo ou un parquet partait à la décharge, on se disait "c'est pour le musée". Puis avec l'appui de la Fédération Départementale du Bâtiment et des Travaux Publics, quelques objets ont été entassés à la Maison du Bâtiment.
Quelque temps plus tard, la ville de Moulins, en la personne de son maire de l'époque, Paul Chauvat, mit à notre disposition un magnifique immeuble du XVIIIème siècle, situé dans le quartier des Mariniers entre la Place d'Allier et la rivière Allier.
Cet immeuble comprend cinq grandes salles au rez-de-chaussée dont trois réservées aux expositions temporaires et six grandes salles au premier étage consacrées aux collections permanentes du musée.
