    Tips

    In German: widow's cross
    You hardly recognize it as a cross. The other (probably Breton name) is "Kroaz Pell".
    On a blackboard here it is analogous to say that a man of rich family (Dom Cornic 1671-1730) after a pilgrimage to Jerusalem has processed his religious experiences in a Way of the Cross. This begins at the "calvaire triangulier de Kerroc'h" which is unique in this area and ends here.


    Really a mystical place with great views of the sea and the bays left and right. In the past, the fishermen came here to look for their husbands, not all of whom had returned from fishing.

    Next to the sea is the Chapelle de la Trinité, which in its present form also goes back to Dom Cornic.
