The Camfrout (low tide)

Highlight • Other

The Camfrout flows into the city's port and mixes directly with the port's salt water, making the port one of the few river ports in Finistère. Its mouth is very wide and opens onto the port of Brest, where it joins that of Aulne. This estuary is a veritable estuary and is accessible at high tide to vessels with a draft of 5m at spring tide and 4m at neap tide. It has long been frequented by boats that in particular served the quarries that exploited the stone of Kersanton , the export of which was favored for a long time.

Hôpital-Camfrout

Highlight • Settlement

Hôpital-Camfrout, more commonly called "l'Hôpital-Camfrout", is a pretty little town where the Camfrout river flows into Brest harbor. With more than 2,000 inhabitants, it offers numerous shops, practical for itinerants on the GR 34. If the schedule invites you to do so, stop by the village church, built in the 16th century with help stones extracted from neighboring quarries.

Notre-Dame de Bonne-Nouvelle Church

Highlight • Religious Site

It is the church of the priory, which is under the jurisdiction of Landevennec Abbey. It is a 16th-century building with a rectangular plan with a three-part bedside table and an asymmetrical five-part sacristy. A transept to the south. The nave has two collaterals. The west facade is very elaborate: the central door, in arch with a basket handle, is framed by prismatic strips and docked with pilasters or prismatic columns in a spiral. A counter curve leaves the crown, beginning to show Renaissance style elements.
