Manoir Traon Feunteniou, à Ploujean stands in Morlaix (Finistère), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century, 19th century). No visits are on record for this building.
Near Morlaix, in Ploujean, this 18th century manor owes its fame to one of its former owners, Marshal Foch, who bought it after marrying Julie Bienvenüe. The plain, elongated building replaced an earlier manor house, reusing its materials. Now home to a religious community, it still holds the Marshal's study, the only room open to visitors.
