Manoir de Tronjoly stands in Cléder (Finistère), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Tronjoly Manor, begun in 1535 in Finistère, exemplifies the Breton aristocratic residences whose construction extended into the 17th century. Its original eastern wing bears the marks of late Gothic style through its mullioned windows and accolade lintels. The whole estate, listed as a historic monument, includes not only the main building but also converted outbuildings, its 19th-century chapel, terraces and enclosed grounds.
What to know
- The building shows traces of three building campaigns: the East wing in 1535, the north main block in the 17th century, then the west wing which formerly served as outbuildings.
- The interior preserves stone and wooden staircases, period decorative elements including painted ceilings and mirrors, as well as reception rooms on the ground floor.
- A 19th-century chapel, a chaplain's cottage and contemporary outbuildings complete the classified estate, which extends across grounds surrounded by walls with an enclosed garden, basin and dovecote.
