Origin and history

The house at 5 Rue du Jerzual in Dinan is an emblematic building of the 16th and 18th centuries, typical of Breton civil architecture. This monument, whose facades and roofs were inscribed by ministerial decree of 4 December 1961, illustrates the evolution of architectural styles between Renaissance and modern times. Its location in the historic centre of Dinan, a medieval town with paved alleys, reinforces its heritage interest.

The protection of this building is part of a process of preserving the Breton urban heritage, where half-timbered or stone houses testify to the bourgeois and artisanal life of past centuries. Dinan, then a commercial and strategic city, saw housing, workshops and shops coexist in a dense urban fabric. This type of house, often redesigned over time, reflects successive adaptations to occupants' needs and architectural trends.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the official address (5 rue du Jerzual) corresponds to the Insee code 22050, in the Côtes-d'Armor department. Although the GPS location suggests an approximation (7 Rue du Jerzual), the monument remains a major historical landmark of the city. No information is provided on its current use (visit, accommodation, etc.), or on any owners or sponsors.
