Standing nearly 3 meters tall and rather classical in style, it's hard to miss near the fountain square. Its structure consists of an arcade that partially overhangs the basin below. Inside, there's a lovely statue of the Virgin Mary. This fountain, steeped in history, was recognized as a historic monument in 1928, a sign of its importance and cultural value.

The Church of Our Lady of the Fosse is a listed building, built in the 15th century in the Gothic style by the lords of Rohan. It was originally a chapel bearing the name "Itron Varia er Fons" or "Our Lady of the Fountain." It was remodeled in the 18th century. Its sculpted sablières date from the 16th century.

GOOD

Numerous cafes around the huge square/market area of Pontivy. Pick one and have a break The Cafe Central (I think was the name) was especially nice, but maybe there are others just as good if not better nearby!

Amazing camping which was open but quiet when I visited in early May 2025 (tip - many French campings don't open until later in May). I would give this 10/10 even with the slight disturbance of the tranquilité caused by the construction of an enormous zip wire across the lake. The camping is located a long way from 'civilisation', at least by bike. However.... it has such great facilities, like a decently stocked and not expensive épicerie, incredibly clean loos and showers, decent self-catering (including amazing Office de Randonneur - an actual indoor kitchen which hikers and bikers are free to use. All this and a private (ish) viewpoint over the lake. Oh and a depot du pain and café service in the morning. Pretty much perfect

Very nice place on this route

The old castle is now partially open to the public. It looks very defensive.

The Mur-de-Bretagne is famous for its steep climb during the Tour de France. The pass stretches for 2 kilometers, with gradients reaching 12%, offering a formidable challenge to cyclists.
