Comment

Quimper is a city whose notables, nobles, canons and merchants have built wood-panelled "hostels" with skilfully carved wood and stone facades, and the nearby rural lands are dotted with noble manors, some of which are summer residences like Lanniron in Locmaria for the bishop. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quimper

(1697) Azure, a ram argent accorné and unguled Or; on a chief ermine. https://armorialdefrance.fr/page_blason.php?ville=13780
