En un regard
Le château en bref
At Les Fougerêts, in the Redon area of eastern Morbihan, the Manoir de la Jouardais is first recorded in 1427, when it belonged to Pierre de la Jouardaye. It later passed to the Maigné family in the 15th century. The present building dates from the 17th century, but it was largely rebuilt in the last quarter of the 19th century, to the point of taking on the appearance of a small château. In the mid-19th century, the estate was acquired by Édouard Sioc'han de Kersabiec, whose family still owns it according to the Inventaire. The manor has an L-shaped plan, organised around a central body, a semi-engaged tower, rectangular pavilions and service wings. It is built of rubble schist, a stone typical of this part of Brittany, enhanced with dressed limestone, on one full storey, under slate roofs of varied forms. Listed in the Inventaire général but not protected as a monument historique, it is privately owned.
