Origin and history

The house in Carhaix-Plouguer, Finistère, is a building dating from the 3rd quarter of the 16th century. It is located at 1 rue Brizeux, although GPS coordinates suggest an address close to Place de la Mairie. This monument is part of the Breton architectural heritage, with a facade and a roof inscribed in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 3 June 1932.

Carhaix-Plouguer, a town in central Finistère, was a dynamic city in the Renaissance, marked by its role as a commercial and religious crossroads in Brittany. The houses of this period often reflect the local economic boom, with worked facades and characteristic roofs. This type of building, though modest, bears witness to the civil architecture of the period and its integration into the historical urban fabric.

The protections applied in 1932 specifically target the façade and roof, elements considered representative of the 16th century building art. The official address in the Mérimée base (1 rue Brizeux) differs slightly from the GPS coordinates (3 Place de la Mairie), highlighting the challenges of precise location for some ancient monuments. No information is available on its current use (visit, accommodation, etc.).
