Le château en bref
Kergarff Manor lies at the locality of the same name, in the commune of Melrand, Morbihan. This former noble residence, listed by the Inventory of the Heritage of Brittany among the manors of Melrand, has been converted into a farm; however, Kergarff does not appear among the seigneuries recorded during the reformations of the nobility. In the mid-nineteenth century, a first dwelling house was added, and a barn was built in 1850, bearing the inscription "faite par François Le Galloudec de Kergarff" ("built by François Le Galloudec de Kergarff"); a second house rose in the 1860s–1870s on the very site of the manor. The two houses, originally aligned and laid out in three bays, are built of granite and dressed stone; the barn, with four cart entrances, combines storage and cattle sheds. The manor's monumental fireplaces, on the ground floor and in the attic, were reused in the agricultural building. Twentieth-century alterations and the storm of 1987, which destroyed dormer windows and the roof framework, have damaged the whole. It is privately owned.
