Origin and history

The house located at 33 rue du Droit-Calmette in Lamballe-Armor (formerly Lamballe) is a civilian building dating mainly from the 16th century, although some sources also evoke an occupation in the 17th century. It is a typical example of Breton Renaissance home architecture, with characteristic elements such as its facade and roof, protected since 1930.

Partially classified as historic monuments by order of 22 March 1930, this house illustrates the importance attached to the preservation of the local built heritage. The protection specifically concerns its facade and roof, highlighting their architectural and historical value. Its exact address, 33 rue du Docteur-Calmette, and its Insee code (22093) clearly place it in the department of Côtes-d-Armor, in Brittany.

Although the sources available (Wikipedia, Monumentum) do not specify its original use or its eventual owners, its inscription among the historical monuments in 1930 bears witness to its role in the urban landscape of Lamballe. The street where it is located, formerly known as Rue Basse, may reflect a medieval or modern organization of the city, where the houses of that time often served as dwellings for local artisans or merchants.
