Château de Kergounadeach, Historic castle ruins in Cléder, France
The castle features four round towers and machicolations, with Renaissance-style chimneys integrated into its medieval defensive architecture at 65 meters altitude.
Built around 1630 by Sebastian II of Rosmadec, the castle stood as a quadrangular fortress until its partial dismantling in 1726 after sale to Mathieu Pinsonneau.
The initial lords of Kergournadech trace back to the 13th century warrior Nuz, who married Alix de Leon and established a prominent noble lineage.
The privately owned ruins require advance permission for visits, while related historical documents can be consulted at the Heritage Media Library in Charenton-le-Pont.
The castle stones were repurposed for constructing neighboring churches after 1878 when the Budes de Guébriant family owned the property.
