Château de Kermenguy

Château de Kermenguy is a 17th-century manor house constructed from gray granite with rectangular window openings and two Renaissance-style dormer windows decorated with coats of arms. The complex also includes a dovecote that is currently undergoing restoration work.

The manor was built in the 17th century on the remains of a 13th-century fortress. Following the French Revolution, the structure underwent significant modifications and changes to its original form.

The name comes from Breton origins and reflects the family lineage tied to the estate for generations. The building displays typical features of Breton noble residences from the 17th century, visible in its stone construction and architectural details.

The estate can be viewed from the exterior, particularly during Heritage Days when the owner offers guided tours. Check ahead for tour dates, as the property is otherwise closed to casual visitors.

The property has remained in the same family's hands for over 600 years since Yvon Derrien married into the de Coetaudon family. This continuous family ownership makes it an uncommon example of sustained heritage in the region.
