To make a day of it

Château de Moustoirlan stands in Malguénac (Morbihan), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Malguénac, in the Morbihan department, the château de Moustoirlan stands out for its compact plan and rigorous classical symmetry, unusual for this rural corner of 18th-century Brittany. Construction ran from the early 1760s to 1781, the year the chapel bell was blessed. Inside, the main staircase occupies the central axis rather than the drawing room, a layout reflecting regional habits rather than fashionable trends of the time. The estate also includes ponds, wooded grounds, a kitchen garden and a long avenue leading to an entrance gate.
