The church was founded by the Hospitallers of the Order of Saint John. The building was rebuilt in 1544 and 1680, with a beautiful Renaissance style domed bell tower overlooking the harbour. Its short nave contrasts with a large double transept. The bell tower, very high, dates from 1629, the porch bears the dates 1593 and 1613 and has preserved the wooden statues of the twelve apostles, the apse (Beaumanoir style) dates from 1680. The high altar and the two confessionals date from the 17th century, as well as the baptismal font: the baptismal font with snakes is unique in Brittany for the richness of its sculptures. Numerous statues adorn the church, including that of Notre-Dame de Pitié, Two Virgin Mothers, Saint Herbot, Saint Yves, Saint Éloi, Saint Barbe, etc.
