Origin and history

The buildings in Quimperlé, Finistère, date from the 15th century. They are located on the edge of the alley surrounding the apse of Saint-Michel church. These buildings, typical of Breton medieval architecture, were inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 19 October 1928.

Their preservation reflects the importance of the built heritage of this period in the region. In the 15th century, Quimperlé was a dynamic city marked by commercial and craft activities. The buildings of that time were often used as housing, workshops or places of commerce, reflecting the daily life and social organization of the community.

Their proximity to the church Saint-Michel suggests a central role in the religious and collective life of the city, typical of the medieval villages of Bretons.
