The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Témoins de l'architecture napoléonnienne en Bretagne, ces bâtiments sont une pièce essentielle d'une grande composition exécutée sous le Premier Empire pour la ville nouvelle de "Napoléonville", édifiée au sud du vieux Pontivy, sur un plan en damier. Le quartier Clisson se présente sous la forme d'un grand bâtiment de trois niveaux surmonté d'un comble à lucarnes, encadré de deux pavillons comportant trois niveaux plus combles.

Witnesses to Napoleonic architecture in Brittany, these buildings are an essential piece of a major composition executed under the First Empire for the new city of "Napoléonville", built south of old Pontivy, on a grid plan. The Clisson quarter presents itself in the form of a large building of three storeys surmounted by a roof space with dormers, flanked by two pavilions comprising three storeys plus roof space.
