Château du Plessis-Kaër stands in Crach (Morbihan), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In the commune of Crac'h, along the Auray river, the château du Plessis-Kaër stands within a 57-hectare estate, its buildings dating from the 16th century. It was built by François de Malestroit, on land raised to a seigneury as early as the 12th century and later to a barony by Henri II in 1533. Notable features include a stair turret with a two-leaf door and carved wooden panels showing male and female profiles set among foliage medallions. The estate today combines the château with a restored manor house, an avenue of magnolias, a palm grove and a former oyster park.
