Near Plovan there are the ruins of a small church from the 12th/13th century, once dedicated to Saint Vitus (French Guy, Breton Guidou - hence the name). Century. In terms of architectural history, the Chapelle de Languidou is considered an early work of the École de Pont-Croix. The preserved Gothic rose window, which probably dates back to the 16th century, is particularly impressive.

Church building from the middle of the 12th century, which was only completed after a hundred years of construction. The window rosette dates from the 16th century. After the French Revolution, the church was sold and destroyed. The remains were misused as a quarry and a watchtower was built with it. The ruin has been classified as a monument historique since 1908.
