ST. ROMAN CHURCH AND PENITENTIAL CHAPEL
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.
