Origin and history

The building at 21 Place Saint-Sauveur in Dinan is a 13th century building, representative of the medieval civil architecture of Brittany. Its inscription as a Historic Monument in 1956 specifically concerns its facades on the square and its roofs, highlighting their heritage value. The protected elements, cadastralized under the reference B 807, show typical construction techniques of this time, although precise architectural details are not described in the available sources.

The location of the building, in the heart of Dinan in the Côtes d'Armor, reflects the urban importance of this Breton city in the Middle Ages. At that time, Dinan was a commercial and strategic hub, and the buildings of Saint-Sauveur Square were to play a role in everyday life, whether they were housing, commercial or craft. The registration of the Historical Monuments in 1956 marks an official recognition of its historical interest, although the accessible archives do not specify the exact criteria for this protection or any owners or craftsmen associated with its construction.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum database, provide administrative information such as the exact address (21 Saint-Sauveur Square) and the Insee code of the municipality (22050), but they remain limited to the specific history of the building. No mention is made of historical characters related to the building, nor of any significant events being held. The accuracy of the location is estimated at 6/10, indicating satisfactory but perfected reliability of the geographical data.
