The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Malouinière construite à la fin du 17e siècle. Cette malouinière entre cour et jardin est élevée d'un étage sur rez-de-chaussée et un comble. Les baies sont entourées de granit. Le corps de logis principal est flanqué, sur chaque face, de deux courtes ailes. Les communs datent de la même époque. Ils sont traversés par deux passages sous voûtes. L'intérieur de la maison a souffert des troubles de la Révolution qui la transforma en remise à chevaux. Sont conservés une partie des boiseries du rez-de-chaussée et les papiers peints à "panorama" du premier étage datant du Premier Empire. En 1807, la propriété revient par alliance à Nicolas Surcouf, frère aîné de Robert Surcouf, et comme lui corsaire puis négociant armateur.

Malouinière built at the end of the 17th century. This malouinière between courtyard and garden is raised one storey above ground floor and roof space. The openings are framed in granite. The main body of the house is flanked on each side by two short wings. The outbuildings date from the same period. They are crossed by two passages under vaults. The interior of the house suffered from the troubles of the Revolution which transformed it into a coach-house. Some of the ground floor woodwork and the panorama wallpapers from the first floor dating from the First Empire are preserved. In 1807, the property came by marriage to Nicolas Surcouf, elder brother of Robert Surcouf, and like him a corsair and then merchant shipowner.
