ITS HISTORY

A former sawmill, active until the 19th century, the mill is a witness to the industrial history and the flourishing river trade of the town.

Located on the banks of the Trieux River, you can still admire its water wheel, a remnant of that era

Today, the Pontrieux mill is a heritage site that attracts many tourists interested in the history and heritage of the Côtes d’Armor.

Restored by Stéphane Tholance, a certified architect, the site represents an integral part of this unique atmosphere, blending nature and history.
