Château du Restmeur stands in Pommerit-le-Vicomte (Côtes-d'Armor), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Château du Restmeur, built in the 18th century at Pommerit-le-Vicomte, reflects successive reconstructions following Jean de la Monneraye's acquisition in 1724. From 1730 to 1790, the estate developed gradually: stables, a chapel consecrated in 1763, entrance pavilions and the main residence were erected through successive building campaigns. The complex, listed as a historic monument, encompasses the chapel, buildings with their facades and roofing, and enclosed grounds bordered by perimeter walls.
What to know
- The site is not regularly open to the public; its listing as a historic monument protects the buildings and grounds without necessarily providing visitor access.
- Protection covers the chapel, the main residence and ancillary buildings' facades and roofing, the garden and orchard, and the perimeter walls and access lane.
- The most recent transformations date from 1785-1790, with the south facade rebuilt in the final major work campaign of the century.
