Origin and history

The Cinéma-dancing de Saint-Quay-Portrieux, located on Boulevard Maréchal-Foch, is a building representative of 20th-century architecture in Brittany. Built in a period marked by the rise of collective leisure, this place played a central role in the social life of the municipality, combining cinematographic projections and popular dances. Its inscription as a Historical Monument by decree of 21 November 1995 underlines its heritage importance, both for its style and for its function in local history.

Designed by architect Jean Fauny, the building reflects the architectural trends of his time, mixing public utility and modern aesthetics. Owned by the commune of Saint-Quay-Portrieux (département des Côtes-d'Armor), it embodies the evolution of cultural practices in rural Breton during the 20th century. Although its exact location is approximate (accuracy noted 5/10), its official address and cadastre (E 123) are clearly referenced in the archives.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum base, confirm its protected status and potential use for public events or visits. However, the details of its current (open/closed) access or visit modalities are not specified in the documents consulted. This monument remains a testament to the social and architectural dynamics of Brittany in the 20th century, between tradition and modernity.
