Malouiniere de la Ville Bague

Last crawled date: 1 year, 11 months ago

The Ville Bague was built in 1715 by Guillaume Eon, born of a family of rich Saint-Malo merchants who had opened a number of trading posts abroad, including in Cadix. A humbler manor once stood here; the pigeon house, the chapel and the outer walls date from 1666. During the Revolution, the house was abandoned by its owners. The original slope, created in 1794, was replaced in 1980 by that of a similar building that was demolished in the Madeleine district of Saint-Malo. The land was divided up two years ago but the central lane leading to the pond was preserved, which protects the three-dimensional effect of the current garden. The wallpaper of the big salon dates from 1820 (produced by Dufour and Leroy) and represents Pizzare's encounter with the Incas. This panorama is unique, and is listed as a historic monument.
