The château de Penvern stands in Persquen, in the Morbihan, on the site of a 15th century manor replaced in the 1770s at the request of Count François du Pérenno. Its rather austere façade reflects the influence of military engineers from Lorient, while a chapel and a guard pavilion flank the main courtyard. Around the main building lie terraced gardens, a pond and a wash house, remnants of a largely preserved park.
