Mellionnec : Château de Trégarantec

The current castle of Trégaranton was built in 1698 by François-René Jégou du Laz, who was an advisor to the Parliament of Brittany. Initially, the castle had two angle wings, but one of them, located along the gardens and perhaps older than the main building, was destroyed at the beginning of the 20th century and rebuilt in 1970. Certain woodwork of the salons it contained were partially reinstalled in different rooms of the current house. In front of the house, there is a court of honor, divided into two sections by a low wall. The entrance is supervised on each side by two pavilions which are contemporary with the castle. On the left of the courtyard, there are several buildings such as outbuildings, discounts and stables, some of which have undergone significant modifications. On the right, the chapel is located, built in 1755, then transformed into a sacristy in 1768. The entrance to the garden was marked by a granite balustrade and pillars, accessible by a large staircase with three levels. The French garden is entirely surrounded by walls and divided into three terraces separated by low walls. The first terrace kept its orangery, while the second has a well. The farm was erected between 1944 and 1945.
