Origin and history

The house at 19 rue Saint-Mathieu in Quimper is an example of 17th-century civil architecture. It is distinguished by its wooden panels facade and its crepassing on lattis, characteristic of the buildings of this period in the region. This type of house, integrated with the old urban fabric, reflects local construction techniques and the organisation of historic Breton neighbourhoods.

Classified as a Historic Monument, this house is part of the protected heritage of Quimper. Its inscription by decree of 22 May 1956 specifically concerns the street façade and the corresponding roof slope. This status underlines its importance in the preservation of Breton architectural heritage, while at the same time testifying to the urban evolution of the city in the 17th century.

The location of this house, in the old quarter of Quimper, reinforces its historical interest. Although the practical information on its visit or current use is not specified, its state of conservation and geographical location make it a key element of the urban landscape. The accuracy of its location is estimated to be fair, which may reflect necessary adjustments in heritage databases.
