Facades and roofs (cad. BE 448) : inscription by decree of 18 January 1967
Origin and history
The building at 1 rue de Corbin in Rennes is a historical monument whose large house body, built in the seventeenth century, stands out for its two floors on the ground floor. Some of the older outbuildings date back to the 15th century, revealing an architectural stratification between medieval and classical periods. The building combines two constructive techniques: the masonry for some parts, and panels of wood coated for others, typical of Breton architecture of this period.
Ranked a Historic Monument, this building was partially protected by decree of 18 January 1967, specifically covering its facades and roofs (cadastre BE 448). Although its detailed history does not mention any significant owners or events, its conservation illustrates the heritage importance of the 17th century Rennes private hotels. The location, in the city centre of Rennes (department of Ille-et-Vilaine), makes it a witness to the urban planning of the modern era in Brittany.
Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum database, highlight its precise address and Insee code (35238), but do not provide information on its current use (visit, rental, etc.). The accuracy of its geographical location is estimated as "passible" (note 5/10), suggesting a map identification to be refined. No reference is made to historical figures related to this building in the data consulted.
