This church houses a superb 15th century stained glass window which depicts the scenes of the Passion in eighteen panels.

Built in 1420 thanks to the donations from the dukes of Brittany, the church contains within it a magnificent stained-glass window of the 15th century which traces the scenes of the Passion in 18 signs. There is also a decorated pulpit evoking the life of Saint Ronan in ten medallions. Next to this church, the Pénity chapel, built in the 16th century houses Saint Ronan's tombstone, a stone slab of Kersanton. This chapel was built in the place of the primitive church. You can then discover a beautiful architectural whole thanks to these two buildings that are joined together. Those who love the 7th art will surely remember the appearance of the church in half a dozen films, the most recent is A Very Long Engagement.

Bel édifice religieux
Trônant sur la place qui bien sûr porte son nom, cet édifice de pierres sombres s'impose. Son intérieur contient des trésors tels ses magnifiques vitraux, une chaire de toute beauté et des statues polychromes comme celle de St Ronan bien sûr, St Christophe...

Magnifiques vitraux
Belle église au centre de cette cité de caractère qui renferme de véritables trésors tels les vitraux datant du 15ème siècle et qui retracent les scènes de la Passion.

Saint Ronan venu à priori d'Irlande a surtout sillonné le Finistère du nord de Brest, en passant par la presqu'île de Crozon puis vers le sud en suivant la rivière Aulne, par Châteaulin puis Locronan. Saint très adulé dans la région. Eglise avec de très beaux vitraux.

C'est une très belle église que vous trouverez au centre de Locronan.
Les vitraux à l'intérieur sont superbes.
Il y a un petit cimetière typique à l'arrière, il vaut le détour.
