"Post built by the Rennes architect Pierre Laloy in 1935 (bears the date) on a corner plot.

At that time, privileged architect of the Posts and Telecommunications, the author signs a work of quality which testifies to his commitments for the regionalist architecture by the raw use of the material, here implemented in a diversified way.

Note: the skylight forming a pediment bearing a bas-relief representing a bisquine, symbol of the town of Cancale, which makes this building one of the major buildings in the town centre.

Opening hours: Monday 2:00 - 5:00, Tuesday 10:00 - 12:00, Wednesday Closed, Thursday 9:30 - 12:00, Friday 9:30 - 12:00, Saturday 9:00 - 12 :00, Sunday Closed"

A noter : la lucarne formant fronton portant un bas-relief représentant une bisquine, symbole de la ville de Cancale, qui fait de ce bâtiment l'un des édifices majeurs du centre ville.
