Chapelle de Trémalo with a roof that almost touches the ground, retaining its 3 wooden altars, the main one framed by 2 statues.

The Trémalo chapel was built on the edge of the Bois d'Amour in the 16th century. It was restored in 1973. What makes it so special is its roof, which almost touches the ground! Inside, you'll find polychrome wooden statues. The most prized is that of a 17th-century crucifix, which served as a model for Gauguin, who visited Pont-Aven several times. The Trémalo chapel has also preserved its three wooden altars, the main one framed by two statues, including a 15th-century Virgin and Child.

A voir - lieu d'histoire
Nous sommes allés du centre à la chapelle de Trémolo à pied. il faut bien 20 mn ( petite côte). La chapelle est à voir avec son christ polychrome, jaune, qui a inspiré Gauguin.

Une chapelle catholique en hauteur de Pont-Aven. Construit au XVe siècle, la chapelle est de style gothique.

Le bâtiment est accessible en moins de 30 minutes à pied de Pont-Aven.
Cela permet de se faire une belle balade dans le "Bois d'Amour".

Il y'a une petite exposition, des tableaux de Paul Gauguin sur le Christ en croix, notamment "Le Christ Jaune" peint en 1889.

C'est intéressant d'aller voir mais pas tout seul l'endroit est un peu glauque sinon.
