En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château du Bignon, also known as the Manoir du Bignon, stands in Peillac, in the Morbihan department. It was built in 1602, a date that marks the original château. During the French Revolution, its central body was destroyed, and only two towers of the original construction survive. In the early twentieth century, between 1900 and 1925, the Evin family linked them with a new residential wing, giving the building its present silhouette, in which the two old towers flank a rebuilt main house. The Inventory of the Heritage of Brittany, which studied it in 2004, does not specify the shape of the towers, the number of storeys or the exact materials of the elevations. The château was also the subject of a historical entry in Charles Floquet's dictionary, published in 1991. It remains a private property. Its name, very common in Brittany, here designates the only estate in Peillac recorded under the reference IA56005518, with no link to the other places of the same name in the region.
