Origin and history
This house, located in Saint-Brieuc, Brittany, features architecture combining Renaissance elements and classical features. Although its construction seems to date mainly from the eighteenth century, some decorative details, such as the frontons of the doors, evoke an older influence. The facade, pierced by two doors surmounted by frontons and a central window, reflects a sober but elegant style, typical of the bourgeois houses of the period.
Inside, the 18th century woodwork, still preserved, bears witness to the refinement of the interiors of this period. The house was partially classified as Historic Monument in 1963, with a specific protection on its street façade and the corresponding roof. Its address, 6 rue Houvenagle, places the building in the historic heart of Saint-Brieuc, a city marked by a varied architectural heritage.
The location of the house, although documented, remains approximate according to available sources, with an accuracy assessed as "a priori satisfactory". No information is provided on its current use, whether it is a public visit, rental or private residence. The data are mainly from the Merimée database and Monumentum, without reference to specific site-related sponsors or historical events.
