This rock is topped by a sentry box rebuilt in the early century to the design of folklorist Théodore Botrel.

Overlooking the sea, this rock is topped by a sentry box rebuilt at the beginning of the ^20th century on the idea of folklorist Théodore Botrel. Two statues were added, one of Notre Dame de la Mer, the other of Saint Tugdual. From the watchtower, you could keep an eye on the sea and its small islands, from which enemies could emerge. At the foot of the rock is an ancient powder magazine. The Sentinel Rock faces the Thief Rock. Between the two lies a picturesque beach, with a breathtaking view of the Gorse Coast and its granite formations.

Le rocher Penvénan

Port Blanc (Penvénan) est une petite station balnéaire dans les cotes d’Armor. En arrivant par la corniche D74 magnifique vue sur la plage et le rocher de la sentinelle. Petit parking à proximité. Plusieurs gros blocs de granit forment la base surplombée d’une guérite. On peut apercevoir à l’intérieur deux statues de Saint-Tugdual et Notre-Dame de la mer. L’histoire raconte que ce lieu était un endroit de surveillance de l’ennemie en provenance des îles situées dans la baie … C’est actuellement un endroit de départ pour effectuer de magnifiques randonnées.
