ロクマリア・グラン・シャンのおすすめライド

A shaded spot to relax during a bike ride. Shops behind for supplies.

16th century cross. It has been listed as a Historic Monument since 1929. Shaft on its base.

Beautiful church from the early 19th century. The interior is currently undergoing major renovation, which is a shame about the view of the magnificent stained glass windows. Jointed stone walls, a few statuettes of Saints.

The Saint-Tugdual church in Grand-Champ, in neo-Gothic style, has the shape of a Latin cross and is topped by an octagonal spire. The current church is a reconstruction in 1865 after the fall of the bell tower struck by lightning.

Located in the heart of the Lanvaux moors, Grand-Champ is a town surrounded by greenery. We find the first written traces of its history in 1224. The commune then included other surrounding communes, such as Locmaria Grand-Champ. Today, it is a dynamic locality with shops and an important community network.

Grand-Champ is the seat of several centuries of history since the Neolithic. This small Breton village saw local lords build a number of chapels and manor houses during the 16th and 17th centuries. The Saint-Tugdal church in its center impresses with its neo-Gothic style.

The St Symphorien church and the presbytery are unmissable local monuments. Its current influence has remained essentially the same since its origin, which is located at the end of the 11th century. The oldest part, in Romanesque style, recognizable by its west porch and the window above it, are in the shape of a semicircular arch, a typical shape of this period. There is also a presbytery nearby.

On the estate of the castle of Salarün, this cross was probably carved in a menhir (rather common practice in the region) and this would explain his short arms.
