A very pretty little chapel that regularly hosts painting exhibitions. Open to the public and free of charge.

First erected during the 11th century, the chapel was rebuilt in its form known today from the 16th century. This small building, appreciated by hikers for its landscapes and its tranquility, turns into an exhibition room during the summer.

The Digue de la Duchesse-Anne is a dike built on ancient coastlines that separated the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel from the marshes of Dol in northeastern Brittany. The dike extends for about thirty kilometers from the tip of Château-Richeux (south of Cancale) in the west to the hill of Saint-Broladre in the east. The dike was probably started in the 11th or 12th century on the initiative of the dukes of Brittany to protect the sensitive areas against the flooding of the sea. The dike was further strengthened and extended in the following centuries. The dike of the west, which extends the dike of the Duchesse-Anne to the mouth of the Couesnon, was built in the middle of the 19th century. The dike of the Duchesse-Anne is located on the territory of the municipalities of Saint-Méloir-des-Ondes, Le Vivier-sur-Mer, Cherrueix and Saint-Broladre. The dike has now been largely converted into a greenway and is part of the EuroVelo cycle route. The dike also offers a beautiful view of the bay and the island of Mont-Saint-Michel.

The Chapelle Sainte-Anne is a small chapel located on top of the dike of the Duchesse Anne, on the outskirts of Saint-Broladre, in the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. The chapel was built in the 11th century to invoke the protection of Sainte-Anne against the flooding of the salt marshes. The current chapel was rebuilt in 1684, as evidenced by the inscription on the wall. The chapel has a simple shape with a wooden vault and a bell tower on the roof. Inside, there is an altarpiece from the 19th century and a painting with the names of the survivors of the World War II concentration camps. The chapel is a place of worship and pilgrimage for Sainte-Anne, the patron saint of Brittany. Every summer, on the fourth Sunday of July, a mass is celebrated and a procession is held with the wooden statue of Sainte-Anne. The chapel also offers a beautiful view of the bay and the island of Mont-Saint-Michel. The chapel is owned by the Conservatoire du littoral and has been registered as a historical monument since 1926.
