Origin and history

The house at 26 rue du Jerzual in Dinan (Côtes d'Armor) is a monument listed in the inventory of Historical Monuments. Its inscription, dated 4 December 1961, specifically concerns its facades and roofs, testifying to their heritage value in the medieval urban landscape of the city. The street of Jerzual, known for its pronounced elevation and its ancient paving, concentrates several historic buildings, strengthening the architectural interest of this house.

The lack of details about its construction period or its occupants in available sources limits the understanding of its specific history. However, its status as a Historic Monument and its location in an emblematic district of Dinan, marked by half-timbered houses and traces of Brittany's merchant past, make it a representative element of the local built heritage. These dwellings often reflected, in medieval and modern times, the prosperity of artisans or traders living in fortified cities such as Dinan, a crossroads between land and sea.
