Origin and history
The bakery Le Guillou is one of the historic houses of Locronan, an emblematic village in Brittany. Located in Place de l'Église, it dates from the 16th and 17th centuries, periods marked by preserved civil architecture. These houses, typical of modern times, frame the place where the communal well is still located, a witness to the daily life of the time.
Classified Historic Monument by order of 6 March 1925 as "Old House", this building illustrates the heritage importance of Locronan. The village, with its homogeneous architectural ensemble, reflects the social and economic organization of the Brittany of Ancien Régime, where craft and commercial activities structured local life.
The precise coordinates of the bakery Le Guillou (6 Church Square, 29180 Locronan) confirm its anchoring in the historical centre.
