Timeline

Origin and history

The house at 82 Rue du Petit-Fort in Dinan is a historic monument whose origins date back mainly to the 16th and 19th centuries. This building, located in the department of Côtes-d These architectural elements reflect stylistic changes between the Renaissance and the modern era, although the precise details of its construction or its historical occupants are not mentioned in the available sources.

The location of this house, in the historic centre of Dinan, a city marked by a rich medieval and reborn heritage, suggests its integration into a dense and preserved urban fabric. Dinan, known for its ramparts and half-timbered houses, was an important commercial and artisanal hub in Brittany. The houses of that time were often used as housing for local merchants, artisans or notables, reflecting the economic and cultural prosperity of the region in the 16th and 19th centuries.

The protections granted in 1961 underline the heritage value of this building, whose architectural characteristics (facades, roofs) are considered representative of a period of tradition and modernity. Although the sources do not specify the changes made in the 19th century, this period is often associated with renovations or adaptations of old buildings to new urban or aesthetic needs. The lack of details on its past or present use (housing, commerce, etc.) limits the understanding of its precise role in local history, but its ranking makes it a protected witness to the Dinan heritage.

The practical information available indicates that the location of this monument is considered "passable" (note 5/10), which may reflect minor uncertainties about its exact location in the geographic databases. No mention is made of its accessibility to the public, whether it be visits, rentals or accommodation, suggesting that it is probably a private property or not open to visitors.

Finally, the sources cited (Monumentum, Merimée base) confirm its status as a Historic Monument and its official address, but do not provide any additional information on its history, owners or possible internal transformations.

The Brittany region, and especially Dinan, has many listed or registered buildings, illustrating the desire to preserve a varied architectural heritage, from the Middle Ages to the contemporary era. This monument is thus part of a broader set of protections designed to safeguard the collective memory and urban identity of the city.
