Tromeur Manor

En un regard

Le château en bref

Tromeur Manor is located in Sérent, in the Morbihan department. Dating from a 15th-century complex, it was probably the seat of the lords of Sérent. It passed to the Avaugour family in 1536, to the Francheville family in 1625, and then to the Collobel family, Rennes parliamentarians. Around a paved courtyard enclosed by walls, it brings together a residential wing with a stair tower, a gatehouse wing whose passage retains two guard benches, outbuildings, a dovecote and a well; the tower bears corbels suggesting machicolations, and traces of defensive features are noted. Around 1740, J.-F. de Collobel de Tromeur had the residence extended to the north and south, the façades remodelled, the windows enlarged, panelling installed and the park laid out; a new staircase and an internal redistribution followed in the 19th century. The masonry is of granite rubble under slate. The façades and roofs of the residential wings, the dovecote, the well and the paved courtyard have been listed as monuments historiques since 8 February 2000. It is a privately owned property.
