Kerminizy Castle

En un regard

Le château en bref

Set in the countryside of Saint-Tugdual, in the north-west of Morbihan, the Manor of Kerminizy is a granite residence whose history spans more than three centuries. The main body was built at the end of the 16th or the beginning of the 17th century for Jean de Deaujouan. From 1627 onwards, the estate belonged to Valentin de Talhoët and Jeanne Le Lagadec; an eastern section was added in 1674 for J. A. du Talhouët, as indicated by a date carved on the roof framework, and his sculpted coat of arms still adorns the building. A lean-to and a north wing were built in the 18th century. In the 19th century, the manor passed to the Kergariou family, including Joseph-François-René, prefect and peer of France, and it was sold in 1897 to Maurice Marchal. A tower in the English style was added to the north-east in 1910–1911. The interior retains a spiral staircase. Its restoration has held a label from the Fondation du patrimoine since 2025.
