PLACE GASTON MONNERVILLE

The main square of the village is dedicated to Gaston Monnerville, son of the mayor of the Pierre Monnerville town, who was in charge of the town from 1876. It is surrounded by a group of well-preserved 19^th and 20^th century buildings. Notice the moldings and the wrought iron balcony of the town hall and the old school where the brothers of Christian instruction taught Ploërmel. In the center, the cast iron and blue ceramic fountain, the color of the municipal coat of arms, is decorated with scallop shells recalling the role played by the Dominicans in the foundation of the parish.
