Timeline

Origin and history

The house at 2 Place au Beurre in Quimper, in the Finistère, is a historic monument built in the 18th century. It is distinguished by its facade covered with a lattice crepasing, a traditional coating technique. This building, registered by ministerial decree in 1956, illustrates the civil architecture of this period in the Breton region.

The official protection specifically concerns the street façade and the corresponding roof slope, as indicated in the archives of the Merimée base. Although the practical information about his visit or current use is lacking, his central location, close to the rue du Lycée, suggests an integration into the historical urban fabric of Quimper.

The available data do not specify the sponsors or historical occupants of this house. However, its architectural style and location in a city with a marked commercial past, such as Quimper, could reflect the social status of its former owners, probably linked to the artisanal or commercial activities of the time.
