Manoir du Houx et sa chapelle stands in Le Minihic-sur-Rance (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 18th century). The building is not open to visitors.
On the edge of Le Minihic sur Rance, this 17th century manor still stands with its chapel, orangery and terraced gardens characteristic of the Saint Malo area. Built in 1625 by Vincent Gravé, it was extended in the following century by the Desages family, who added the chapel and the formal gardens. The property remains privately owned, and only its exterior, the main house, outbuildings and the chapel with its angled apse, can be seen from the roadside.
