Saint James Chapel

Highlight • Other

The apostle "Saint-JACQUES", to whom this chapel in Ploubazlanec was dedicated, belongs, together with his brother, to the closest circle of Jesus' disciples. In his version of the "Good News" (this is the meaning of the word "gospel"), the evangelist Mark lists the apostles: "James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James - to whom he gave the nickname Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder" (Mark 3:17). They are said to have been very temperamental, but were loyal followers of Jesus Christ because they recognized in him the promised Messiah. According to the Acts of the Apostles written by the evangelist Luke, James was executed for his faith, making him an early martyr of Christianity. His grave in the place named after him, "Santiago de Compostela" (Galicia, Spain), is one of the most famous and important pilgrimage destinations in the world.

Loguivy-de-la-Mer

Highlight • Settlement

Loguivy-de-la-Mer was built by fishermen, who still live today from their traditional fishing, which does not damage the seabed. The village is part of the town of Ploubazlanec which has about 3000 inhabitants.

Loguivy-de-la-mer

Highlight • Structure

Loguivy-de-la-mer is a pretty, typically Breton fishing port, relaxing for some, inspiring for others. François Budet, an eminent Breton poet, sang music about him that became an anthem for the region:

“Loguivy-de-la-mer, Loguivy de la mer
You watch the last true sailors die
Loguivy-de-la-mer, at the bottom of your old port
The carcasses of already dead boats are piled up.”

Pleubian church

Highlight • Other

(13th century 1810 - 1814), built by the contractor Levavasseur on the plans of Félix Anfray and restored since. Built on the remains of an older church dating from Saint-Maudez and ruined by Norman invasions, the church dates back to the 13th century for its oldest pillars. 1729, the reconstruction plans are drawn up by Anfray. From 1813, the work was directed by Levavasseur. Later, for some unexplained reason, the choir and the bell tower are reversed, Saint-Georges not respecting the tradition of the choir in the east. The north aisle was raised in 1933, and the south-east aisle in 1848. The double aisles and the campanile were redone in 1886 and organs were installed at the same time. The sacristy was rebuilt in 1889. The church was restored at the end of the 19th century. Saint-Yves often came to preach here, in the adjoining Benedictine priory, built in 1034. The church houses pretty banners, a polychrome wood Pieta from the 15th century (which comes from the chapel of Rojadou, destroyed at the beginning of the 20th century), the statues of Saint Comes and Saint Damien, the relics (the reliquary dates from the 17th century) of Saint Vincent Ferrier (Spanish preacher, who died in 1515 in VANNES), the ex-votos of Saint Antoine and Napoleon, as well as the model of Saint Georges (early 20th century and work of the sculptor Le Guen). The outdoor pulpit dates from the 15th-16th century. The ground is covered with many funerary slabs. Note that the primitive church was placed around 1050 under the patronage of Saint Peter. The lords of Kermel and Kermenguy once held preeminences in the church of Pleubian.
Open for free on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in summer.

Lézardrieux has a very pretty center with a remarkable avenue. The Lézardieux bridge which crosses the Trieux is just as much.

Notre-Dame de Bonne-Nouvelle Church

Highlight • Religious Site

In Paimpol, this imposing church is bordered by the streets Pierre Feutren, Henri Dunant, Henri Fromal and Louise Mével. Its construction took place from March 1910 to February 1914 by the Contractor Canivet under the supervision of the architect Eugène Le Guerrannic. You can admire on the facade the two statues of Saints Brieuc and Maudez framing the main porch. A poster indicates that it is only open on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 3 to 5 p.m. and on Mondays for the 5:30 p.m. office.

View of Bréhat Island

Highlight • Viewpoint

A tip for cyclists:

There are hefty prices for crossing with your own bike (€18 for a normal bike, €30 for an e-bike). It is possible to rent bicycles on the island. The offer is limited (especially for e-bikes). If you want to visit the island all day (>5 hours), it is worth crossing with your own bike (transport costs = rental costs) (departure from the mainland at 9:30 a.m. at the latest; return from 4:00 p.m.)

As of July 2023
