BASQUE29

The Languivoa Chapel was built in the 13th century and has had an eventful history. The completion of its restoration in 2017, following a long period of neglect, now draws visitors with its architecture and the romanticism of its legend. The route takes you along part of the Moulin Neuf pond. This body of water is fed by a single stream (the Rivière de Pont-l’Abbé). 

A chapel set within a large wooded enclosure where all is calm and tranquillity, guarded by sculptures carved from tree trunks. These frozen sentinels watch over the chapel and a magnificent fountain dominated by its calvary and Pietà (16th–late 19th century). Taken together, this forms a splendid example of Breton architectural art from times gone by. The nearby Manoir de Squividan is also a fine illustration of this art form.
