Manoir de Kernaudour stands in Bretagne. No visits are on record for this building.
Of the former Kernaudour manor house in Bégard, Côtes-d'Armor, only the granite dovecote remains, perched on a rise overlooking the Jaudy valley. Two bonsai-shaped oak trees flank it, and a tree growing on its roof brought the structure public recognition in French and European tree-of-the-year contests. The site now sits within the Armoripark leisure park, and its outline inspired the town's logo.
