OUR LADY OF CROAS BATZ
Church of flamboyant gothic style with a 17th century ossuary with double row of balusters and a 16th century ossuary in Roscoff.
Set on the central square, this church completed in 1545, was built in an attractive Gothic style. Its Renaissance bell-tower with lanterns is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable in Finistère. As usual in Brittany, the chapel gives a notion of a reversed ship. The carved boats in high relief on the church walls remind you of the Roscoff maritime vocation. Very rare element: a 17th century ossuary with double row of balusters, as well as a much more siber 16th century ossuary.
