Origin and history

Vaumadeuc Manor House, located in the town of Pleven in the Côtes-d'Armor, is a remarkable example of Breton Renaissance architecture. Built in the 16th century, it succeeds a medieval mansion attested from the 13th century, then owned by the lords of Gué-Madeuc. Its inscription in the title of historical monuments since 4 February 1926 underscores its heritage importance, preserving a characteristic façade of the 15th century, a dovecote, a rose garden and a pond in an intimate setting.

The current structure of the mansion reflects the architectural evolutions of Brittany between the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The site, mentioned in the sources as Man Vau Madeuc, retains cadastral protected elements (parks A3 775-777, 779-794, 804). Although the archives do not specify its exact use in modern times, this type of mansion was often the center of a local seigneury, combining residential, agricultural and symbolic functions.

Available data (Wikipedia, Monumentum) confirm its status as a historical monument and its exact address: 5096 Man Vau Madeuc, 22130 Pleven. No information is provided on its current accessibility (visits, rental, accommodation), or on any significant owners or occupants after the 13th century. The accuracy of its geographical location is estimated to be poor (note 5/10) in the Merimée base.
