Troyes is a medieval town in the Province of Champagne, France.
Its town centre consists of multiple blocks of medieval buildings dating back to the 16th century, a time when the Middle Ages was ending and the Renaissance just starting. 
My first close-up is one of the brass triangles that are embedded in the pavements of Troyes to indicate iconic historic buildings. They are engraved with a knight as this was the time of the crusades, and I can easily imagine a knight striding around these half-timbered buildings. 
The other close-ups show age in a different way, although I suspect many of these shots are of substantially newer items that are probably decaying faster than the five-hundred-year-old buildings.
Medieval rust?
Not sure what this is but I like it. 
Love this door detailing.
Weathered door flap; for your pet plague rat?

Black door with a well-weathered lion door knocker.
Angry duck drainpipe.

I love the details you focused on (no pun intended).
The close-ups in Troyes are nothing like what we can find in Vancouver…
Love these details, the rust, the worn paint, the age.
Living in a ‘city of glass’ where there is almost nothing before 1900, these ancient buildings absolutely fascinate me…
Excellent finds
Lots of crusty stuff in Troyes!
Yes, years since I was there very briefly, and I’m feeling somewhat miffed that I missed all these things
