The construction of the Church of Saint-Pierre and Saint-Paul dates from the end of the 15th century, and it continued until the beginning of the 16th century. Its architecture is typical of Trégor, it has the characteristics of the so-called Beaumanoir school. The architect Phillipe de Beaumanoir, originally from Plougonven, in Trégor, was a builder of churches and chapels.

a magnificent archway in front of the church - these old buildings always evoke my admiration for both their builders and their designers.
