En un regard
Le château en bref
The Manoir de la Demanchère is located in Guer, in the Morbihan. Its main residential block dates from the last quarter of the 16th or the first quarter of the 17th century, based on the decoration of its façade and fireplaces. The coats of arms carved on the fireplaces could be those of the Hamon and Hamon Le Houx families, an identification that remains to be confirmed. This first block, a square two-storey building of rubble schist without dressed-stone quoining, is roofed in slate with covered gables. It was served by a projecting staircase in a tower, known from an old photograph and now demolished. A second block with an attic was added later. The complex also includes a courtyard, an enclosure, a carriage house, a stable, a dovecote and a well; the doorway is among its notable features. Privately owned, the manor is listed in the General Inventory and is presented by the commune among its private heritage.
