Château de Coëtbo, Historical monument in Guer, France.

The main building of the castle features a 17th-century facade with two square pavilions at the ends and a large stone exterior staircase.

Built on the foundations of a medieval fortress, the current castle dates from 1620 and was expanded by architect Pierre Hureau for the Pontchâteau family in 1647.

The coats of arms of Julien de Marnière and Marie Anne du Bois Baudry decorate the main staircase, reflecting the heritage of Breton noble families.

The estate includes a chapel, dovecote, gatehouse, and terraced gardens accessible by stairs, all classified as historical monuments.

The castle served as headquarters for the Chouan armies of Brittany during the French Revolution after the Battle of Savenay.
