Origin and history
The house Le Bras, located in Baden, Brittany, is an emblematic construction of the second half of the 20th century, more precisely built from 1970. It is the work of architect Roger Le Flanchec (1915–1986), who designs it for the spouses Le Bras. This project is part of a period when modern architecture begins to make lasting mark on Breton landscapes, mixing functionality and contemporary aesthetics.
The house is listed in the Historical Monuments by order of 7 June 2021, a recognition that protects the building in its entirety, including its embankment slope. Only recent wood shelters and some interior fittings (room and bathroom) are excluded from this protection. The building appears in the cadastre under the reference section ZD, Parcel No. 108, at 63 rue du Château d.
The architect Roger Le Flanchec, a local figure of modernism, unfolds a style characteristic of his time, combining clean volumes and integration with the landscape. The house Le Bras thus illustrates the evolution of bourgeois houses in Brittany, where tradition and innovation coexist. Its recent ranking highlights the growing interest in 20th century architecture, often underestimated.
Although the information on its current use (visits, rentals) is not specified, its status as a Historic Monument makes it a major testimony of modern Breton heritage. Localisation, noted as "a priori satisfactory" (level 7/10), makes it possible to envisage a future tourist or cultural development.
