Manoir de Kervégan, 15th-century manor estate in Lannion, France
Manoir de Kervégan is a 15th-century manor estate in Brittany with granite walls and architectural features spanning medieval and Renaissance styles. The complex includes residential buildings and a nearby chapel set within a larger property.
Construction of the manor began in the early 15th century as a residence for local nobility. The building underwent significant renovations later, particularly around 1815, which reshaped much of its character.
The Saint-Nicodème Chapel on the grounds displays stained glass windows with heraldic shields that speak to the noble past of the estate. This religious component was woven into the daily life of its former residents.
The manor is a private residence requiring special permission for visits, but its exterior can be viewed from public areas nearby. Walking around the grounds offers views of the chapel and the outer structures without needing access to the interior.
Two carved granite stones on the former outbuildings display inscriptions and the coat of arms of the estate's former lords. These stone markers preserve the identity of the family that once inhabited the property.
