Description

This religious site represents devotion practices from the end of the 19th century. It includes a chapel, a Scala-Santa with two fountains, and the Saint-Isidore cross, located on the procession route. The chapel was built in 1683. Its double apse plan is a peculiarity in Brittany. The architecture, the furniture and the sets are original and have undergone any modification. The sacristy dates from 1730, the Calvary was carried out in 1821, and the Scala-Santa was added between 1885 and 1886.
