Maison de la Duchesse Anne, Medieval house in Saint-Malo, France
The Maison de la Duchesse Anne features a pentagonal shape with four towers and includes a circular staircase tower that becomes octagonal at its summit.
Built in the 15th century, this residence served as part of Saint-Malo's early fortifications and belonged to the original Château-Gaillard complex until 1573.
The house represents traditional Breton architecture with its carved window supports, chamfered lintels, and distinctive architectural elements from medieval times.
Located at 2 Cour La-Houssaye in Saint-Malo, the building maintains several original features despite damage from a fire during World War II.
The structure combines a circular base with an octagonal top in its staircase tower, incorporating defensive machicolations into its design.
