Origin and history
Landerneau's 17th century house is a historic monument located in Brittany, in the Finistère. This stone building, with three floors and a corbel on the corner, illustrates the civil architecture of the modern period. Its inscription in the inventory of Historic Monuments in 1926 highlights its heritage interest, especially for its facade and roof, protected by decree.
Landerneau, the port city of Leon, experienced in the seventeenth century an economic boom linked to maritime commerce and crafts. The bourgeois houses, like this one, reflect the prosperity of some inhabitants, often merchants or local notables. These stone constructions, with their architectural details (corbellations, skylights), mark the urban landscape and testify to the techniques of the period.
The location of the house, Place Toul-Coq (or Place Poul Ar Stang depending on the sources), places the building in the heart of a historic district. Its state of conservation and early inscription (1926) make it a remarkable example of the Breton built heritage. The available data do not specify its original use, but its style suggests a residential or commercial function, common in dynamic cities of the time.
