Quimper / Half-timbered house

The half-timbered houses of Quimper are part of the urban landscape. Testimony of medieval know-how, these buildings have marked the centuries, from the 14th to the 19th century. Real wooden puzzle, these houses are the pride of Breton towns. Thanks to them, it is possible to imagine Quimper in a time when two powers competed, the bishop in the walled city, the dukes on the other side of the Steir.
