Château de Loyat stands in Loyat (Morbihan), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château de Loyat stands near Ploërmel in the Morbihan, at the end of a courtyard flanked by two entrance pavilions. Rebuilt from 1718 by the Vannes-based architect Olivier Delourme for the Coëtlogon family, it has survived the centuries with little alteration beyond changes to its park. Visitors today find a listed ensemble combining the château, outbuildings, ponds and terraces within grounds laid out in the French formal style.
