Origin and history

Le Manoir du Lézard is a 17th-century building located in Bourbriac, in the Côtes-d'Armor department, Brittany. This monument, typical of Brittany's seigneurial architecture, is distinguished by its private chapel located in Saint-Adrien, former truve of Bourbriac. It embodies the aristocratic rural heritage of this period, marked by influential local families and residential and symbolic constructions.

The property belonged to the Bizien de Lézard family, whose branch also owned the Helloc mansion, located in the same municipality. This family bond underlines the importance of this lineage in local history. The manor house was partially protected as historical monuments by a decree of 20 January 1926, specifically covering its facade, the entrance to the court and the property, with its characteristic balusters.

The Lézard mansion is not visited in normal time, except during exceptional events. This restriction reflects its status as private property, preserved but not accessible to the public. Official sources, such as the Mérimée base of the Ministry of Culture, confirm its registration and provide administrative details, such as its exact address (2 Le Lizard, 22390 Saint-Adrien) and its Insee code (22013).
