Hôtel de Limur, Private mansion in Vannes, France

The Hôtel de Limur stands on a prominent corner in Vannes, featuring large windows, stone balconies, and French doors added during 18th-century renovations.

Built in 1685 for Canon Le Doulx, the mansion served as a military commission headquarters during the French Revolution to judge Quiberon prisoners in 1795.

The building now houses the Architecture and Heritage Interpretation Center, offering exhibitions about urban development and regional architectural traditions.

Visitors can explore the restored rooms, participate in guided tours, and attend conferences focusing on the architectural heritage of Vannes throughout the year.

The mansion underwent multiple name changes before becoming Hôtel de Limur in 1820, when the Limur family acquired it and maintained ownership until 1947.
