The Manoir du Vaumadeuc dates from the 15th century, and was built by Madeuc, lord of Guémadeuc. In the 18th century it was acquired by Joseph-Marie-François de Talhouèt, Comte de Sévérac. After the French Revolution, François Tresvaux du Fraval, a Priest Canon of Paris, had his library at the Manor. In the 20th century the Manor passed to the family of the Vicomte de Pontbriand.[4]
