The most beautiful churches cathedrals basilicas and chapels Brittany

The chapel of Saint-Briac, known as Bodfo or Bodfao, was built in 1948. Its construction follows a vow made in 1944 by Canon Déréat, then pastor of Bourbriac, who wished to realize the religious edifice in memory of the end of the Second World War. The chapel of Saint-Briac-de-Bodfo was built at the location of a primitive chapel, built on the remains of an oratory built by Saint Briac.

The third oldest church in France, the Saint-Gal Church is of Gallo-Roman origin. During the renovation process, begun in 1980, the first traces of paintings covered by several layers of lime coating were discovered indoors. It has frescoes of the th and th centuries. Among the biblical characters identified on the frescoes, Meldisedech and Michel. Saint Michel is represented wearing a character, symbolizing a soul, in a linen. This representation of Saint Michel is extremely rare: it is only found on two other copies from Ireland and England. 

In the heart of the village, just a few steps from the sea, St. Michel's Chapel looks back to the th century, as its particularly ancestral foundations attest. It would appear, given its clocheton and openings, that it would have been rebuilt in the th century. The interior houses a remarkable three processional poles. The forgiveness takes place on Sunday closest to the feast of Saint Michel (29 September).

The Prieuré Saint-Étienne, located a few steps from the greenway, is the ideal place for a cultural break. The chapel is the oldest in Morbihan still standing. The priory was founded in 1140 and the guided tours allow visitors to discover a rich heritage, witnessing the different periods through which the chapel has passed: 17th century altarpiece, contemporary stained glass windows, 15th century mural painting, remains of the Gallo-Roman period... In summer, activities bring the place to life: games for families, guided tours, exhibitions.
