Description: Posts-in-ground (poteaux-en-terre) construction. Note that the floor is supported by stones that are independent of the walls. This is the cellar of the Bauvais-Amoureux house. The Amoureaux House was built c. 1793 near Ste. Geneviève, Missouri. It is one of three poteaux-en-terre buildings that survive. The others are the Bequet-Ribault House and the Vital St. Gemme Beauvais House.
