House backed by the western façade of the church of Saint-Michel (cad. AR 403): inscription by decree of 19 October 1928
Origin and history
The house located Place Saint-Michel in Quimperlé is a remarkable historical monument by its architectural integration into the church of Saint-Michel. It was built directly on the site of the old porch of this church, whose side façades are included in its structure. This physical link with a medieval religious building gives it a unique heritage, combining civil housing and sacred heritage.
The inscription of this house under the title of Historic Monuments by order of 19 October 1928 underlines its historical and architectural importance. Its official address, 45 Place Saint-Michel, corresponds to the heart of the city of Quimperlé, in Finistère, Brittany. The location, noted as "passable" (level 5/10) in the databases, indicates an approximation in geographical accuracy, probably linked to its adoration to the church.
No information is available on the contemporary uses of this building (visits, rentals, etc.), nor on any historical figures associated with its construction or occupation. Its status as a Historic Monument, however, protects its characteristic elements, including the western façade, which is bordered by the church of Saint-Michel, classified under the cadastral reference AR 403.
