To make a day of it
Château de l'Émir stands in Langoëlan (Morbihan), in the Bretagne region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
On the northern edge of Langoëlan, this 1920s bourgeois residence stands out for its circular turret resting on concrete columns, topped by a domed belvedere. Built for Albert Haïk, a Parisian contractor, at the request of his wife who came from the village, it combines brick and concrete, materials unusual for the area, with a composite layout of veranda, conservatory and glazed balcony. Used by German forces during the Second World War and later left derelict, the building is currently under restoration.
