Vasque de Lézire (Box B 610): inscription by order of 22 March 1930
Origin and history
The Lezireur basin, located in Henvic in Finistère, is a monument dated from the 1st quarter of the 18th century. This monument, inscribed by decree of 22 March 1930, is referenced under the name "Lezireur Vasque" in the Merimée base, with cadastral code B 610. Its exact location, although located at 1985 E Lezireur, 29670 Henvic, has a geographical accuracy deemed mediocre (note 5/10).
Henvic, a commune in Finistère (code Insee 29079), belongs to the arrondissement of Quimper in Brittany. At the time of the construction of the basin in the early eighteenth century, this region was marked by a rural and agricultural society, where local monuments, such as fountains or basins, often played a practical or symbolic role in community life. These works could be used as gathering points, drinking for livestock, or as territorial markers.
The Lézireur basin has been protected under the Historic Monuments since 1930, highlighting its heritage importance. Available data, from sources such as Monumentum, do not specify its original use or sponsor, but its official registration attests to its historical and architectural value. No information is provided on its current accessibility or conservation status.
