En un regard
Le château en bref
Château de Camzon, also known as Camezon, stands isolated at the locality of Camzon, in the commune of Locqueltas, Morbihan. The site has been occupied for a long time: the outbuildings, a former dwelling, bear the date 1647, the oldest inscribed date on the estate. The former château was in ruins by around 1760, and its chapel had disappeared by 1864. In 1839, M. Chevallier acquired the property; he later had the château rebuilt on the site of the old one, around 1860–1870, in an eclectic style inspired by the late 17th-century. The new main building, with a compact plan, consists of a rectangular block flanked to the south by two polygonal towers that frame the principal façade. It has a raised ground floor above a semi-sunken basement, a square first floor and an attic storey. Granite, tuffeau and render make up its walls; the window surrounds, the corbelled cornice and the dormer windows are in tuffeau, beneath slate roofs. A heraldic stone from the former château, bearing arms that have not been identified, has been placed in the garden. The L-shaped outbuildings to the south and a dovecote to the north complete this private estate.
