Former abbey of Landévennec with vegetable garden and medicinal garden, housing a museum rich in information and a fun exhibition

The ruins of the abbey stands proudly at the edge of the Aulne. Founded between the 5th and 6th century by Saint Guénolé, the abbey was progressively destroyed by the Vikings in 913, rebuilt several times, then disappeared during the Revolution, during which the monks were expelled. The museum traces the lively history of the site which become the oldest and most famous sanctuary of Brittany. The view is exceptional, the very educational museum and a recreational exhibition is available from April to November. Throughout the year, educational workshops, concerts and events animate the ruins of this medieval archaeology's major place. The garden and the vegetable garden where visitors can walk, embody the monastic gardens before the year one thousand.

Une très agréable surprise pour un lieu un peu à l écart des lieux traditionnels. Le musée et son exposition temporaire sont vraiment super bien documentés: beaucoup de recherches historiques et archéologiques ont lieu ce qui permet de rendre la visite très intéressante. Bravo !

La petite histoire
A côté du musée sur la Bretagne, cette ancienne bbaye dont il reste quelques ruines vous explique l'importance de ce monument niché dans la rade de Brest. Certains objet de guerre laissent penser qu'elle ne fut pas que religieuse mais qu'elle eu son imporatnce vu son emplacement pour défendre la région.

Un site incroyable ! Que ce soit dans les ruines de l'abbaye ou dans le musée, le voyage dans le temps est garanti ! Les reproductions des manuscrits sont super bien réalisées, à s'y méprendre. L'accueil est très chaleureux. Bref, un site qui vaut vraiment le détour !
