"Located near Saint-Thégonnec, the Kanndi du Fers walk takes you to discover these typical laundry houses of Léon. Linen thread was bleached there, while everywhere in Brittany and elsewhere, canvas was bleached. This particularity resulted in the construction of specific buildings: the “laundry houses” or kanndi in Breton (from kanna, to whiten, and ti, house). The walk can be done freely. Interpretation panels created by the Au Fil du Queffleuth et de la Penzé association inform you about the canvas history of this area.
