Origin and history

The house located in the 1 Place des Merciers in Dinan is a 15th century civil building, typical of the Breton urban architecture of this period. It is distinguished by its facades and roofs, protected by a classification under the Historical Monuments since 4 December 1961. This building illustrates the built heritage of Dinan, a city marked by its medieval history and commercial role in Brittany.

The 1961 classification refers specifically to facades and roofs, identified under cadastral reference B 557. The location of this monument, initially noted as "Place des Cordeliers" before becoming the Place des Merciers, reflects the toponymic evolutions of the city. Dinan, attached to the department of Côtes-d-Armor (code Insee 22050) and to the Brittany region, preserves through this type of house a testimony of its merchant and artisanal past.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum highlight the heritage importance of this building, although its location accuracy is considered "passable" (note 5/10). No information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, or otherwise), but its status as a Historic Monument guarantees its preservation. The associated photograph, licensed under Creative Commons, is awarded to Édouard Hue, contributing to the visual documentation of the Dinan heritage.
