Built on the hillside on the north-west face of a mound which was a fortified point from the 10th century, the Notre-Dame chapel dominates the channeled course of the Aulne by 35 m. Its oldest parts date back to the beginning of the 13th century. At the time, it was the parish church of a small village established on a nearby hillock of which the place called “Le Vieux-Bourg” remains. The structure of the chapel will evolve over the next 5 centuries according to the different styles of the moment. But despite all these changes, a certain unity emerges which makes this church a small masterpiece of Breton architecture. The church, the triumphal arch, the cross and the ossuary are classified historic monuments.

Built on the slope on the northwest side of a hill that had been a fortified point since the 10th century (in the 11th century the cartulary of the Benedictine abbey of Landévennec refers to this place by the name of "Montagne de Nin near the banks of the river Hamn" ), the Notre-Dame chapel dominates the course of the canalized Aulne from a height of 35 m. Its oldest parts date back to the beginning of the 13th century.

At that time it was the parish church of a small village, built on a nearby hill, from which the place called “Le Vieux-Bourg” survives. The structure of the chapel will evolve over the next 5 centuries according to the different styles of the moment. But despite all these changes, a certain unity emerges that makes this church a small masterpiece of Breton architecture.
