20의 생 앙드레 데오가지 명소 & 주요 장소

매우 아름다운 교회입니다. 특히 창문들이 마음에 들었습니다.

I was particularly impressed by the church windows.

Dinan was founded in the 11th century at a strategic location on the Rance River. It developed into a fortified trading and market town during the Middle Ages. In the 14th century, Dinan played an important role in the Hundred Years' War and was repeatedly contested. The town is known for its well-preserved medieval old town with half-timbered houses, city walls, and the Saint-Sauveur Basilica.

The Basilica of Saint-Sauveur was founded around 1112 and combines Romanesque and Gothic architecture. It is famous as the burial place of the hero Bertrand du Guesclin. It has been a historic monument since 1862 and was elevated to a minor basilica in 1954. Noteworthy are the Romanesque west portal, the Gothic chapels, and the relief of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.

This church was not dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as blessed or saints and ask for their heavenly intercession with God, or - like so many French churches - to the Mother of God (“Notre-Dame”). The patronage here was chosen to be the incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ himself, and the church in Dinan was dedicated to him under the title “SAINT SAUVEUR” - that is, as the Redeemer and Savior (Latin: “Salvator”).

A towpath, which runs alongside the river or canal, was an essential part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move using motor power, horses ran along the bank and pulled the ship against the current. This was called "treideln" (towing), and this is how the "towpath" that has been preserved to this day got its name.

Between the upper town and the lower town it is 75m

Departure from the pretty town of Combourg with its lake and castle, passing through the Chapelle au Filsmen to join the canal towards Dinan, various pretty, well-maintained locks, half-turn to Evran where there is a site for bivouac camping, and a food truck. The ideal is to go to Dinan, a very pretty historic town, you arrive directly at the port with various shops.
