Origin and history

The house in Malestroit, Morbihan, is a 17th-century civil building. It is distinguished by its oak door with a vantail, integrated in a bay in full hanger. This door, composed of four panels at the bottom and two panels ground at the top, is surmounted by a sculpted tympanum representing a child holding an abundance horn, framed by two chimeras. These decorative elements bear witness to artisanal know-how and a symbol of modern times.

Classified as a Historical Monument by order of 1 May 1933, this house is protected for its carpentry door, referenced under the AZ 47. Its address, 19 rue du Général-de-Gaulle (formerly Grande-Rue), places the monument in the heart of the historic centre of Malestroit. The location, although noted as "passable" (level 5/10), allows to identify the building in the urban fabric of this small Breton town.

No information is available about the current use of the building (visit, rental, guest rooms) or its detailed history beyond the architectural elements described. The sources are limited to Monumentum data and the references of the Merimée database, without mention of sponsors, architects or specific historical events related to this house.
