En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château du Diable, at Pendreff (Caudan, Morbihan), was an eighteenth-century residence with an L-shaped plan facing south, with a lodge, stables and slate-roofed outbuildings. Its name is said to derive from its first owner, a timber merchant supplying the Lorient fleet whose rapid fortune was associated with the devil. Acquired in 1937 by the Lycée Dupuy-de-Lôme as a leisure space for boarders, it was partly destroyed by American bombing during the Second World War; the outbuildings fell into ruin after 1975. The château no longer exists.
