En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château de la Roche-Guéhennec (or Manoir de la Roche), in the commune of Guerlédan (formerly Mûr-de-Bretagne, Côtes-d'Armor), was founded in the 13th–14th centuries to control the Poulancre valley, then rebuilt in the early 15th century: dendrochronological analysis of the ceilings of its 128 m² great seigneurial hall dates them to 1429-1449. The building, of granite and schist under a slate roof, was altered in the 17th century after the siege of 1655; it retains two "vis de Saint-Gilles" spiral staircases and a monumental fireplace characteristic of early Breton manor houses. Held by the du Fou family from 1377 to 1584, then by the Ranconnet/Noyan, Euzenou de Kersalaün and Guillo-Lohan families, it now belongs to Mr and Mrs Arnaud Colon de Franciosi. Currently under restoration, it hosts a renowned fest-noz every year on the first Saturday of August, as well as the "Sons en Bretagne" festival.
