The pond dates back to at least the 16th century. It once covered the entire valley area. Its marshy parts bordered the bases of the medieval city walls, forming a natural defense at the foot of the original castle. On 18-19 August 1773, torrential rains caused a sudden flood that washed away the causeway of the pond, destroying the mills and causing the death of 15 people. The Gouët had a wild course there and the pond supplied the castle mill. The marshy areas of the valley were filled in for the development of the Corlay road in 1864 and to build the station of the “Petit Chemin de fer des Côtes-du-Nord” in 1907.

The Basilica of Notre-Dame de Délivrance is a sacred place located in Hennebont, France. Built in the 20th century, this basilica seduces with its neo-Gothic architecture and its local religious importance.

The neo-Gothic bell tower, a building of the 19th century, marks the Quintin landscape. The basilica was rebuilt in 1887 on the site of the old collegiate church. But it was in the 13th century that Lord Geoffroy I Botherel, returning from a crusade with the holy relic of the Belt of the Virgin, gave new impetus to this Marian site. This subject is illustrated in sculpture on the tympanum. To discover the gallery of reclining figures and the baptismal font, designed by Jeanne Malivel, a leading artist of Breton Art Deco. The church became a minor basilica in 1934. The great Pardon Notre-Dame-de-Délivrance takes place every year in May. Open every day. Nearby on the rue Notre-Dame, stop in front of the monumental fountain Notre-Dame-d'entre-les-Portes from the 15th century.

The Resistance Museum in Argoat introduces you to the Plésidy maquis and its daily life under the Occupation. Its exhibition tells you the story of the Second World War and the Resistance in the west of the Côtes d'Armor. The museum has a rich collection of period documents and objects as well as photos. As you enter, you will see a fairly old bicycle hanging on the wall, and its history is most exciting. It was given to the Museum by Fernand Trochel, cyclist and bike repairer on Guingamp during the Second World War. Fernand was a liaison agent for the maquis of Plésidy-Saint-Connan but also for the Shelburn network, a branch of the British secret services. Every day, he traveled nearly 150 kilometers, criss-crossing the department by bicycle. He was provided with a pass issued by the German authorities so that he could "officially" continue his cycling training. He took advantage of this cover to distribute mail, which he hid in his pedal box, to the various Resistance networks. If you want to learn more about his story, the museum offers his book for sale. Opening hours: Wednesday and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Built between the second half of the 12th century and the first half of the 13th century, this schist and granite castle was destroyed during the Hundred Years War and then rebuilt by Jean de Rohan from 1475 to 1493. The pond, located at north of the castle, fed the moats which are now filled in. From 1616, the site, which was already in very poor condition, was gradually abandoned for more than three centuries. It will take a buyout by the municipality to begin a vast revaluation of its ruins, and a rehabilitation of the buildings. I advise you to take the time to explore the remains of this castle with its typical architecture from the end of the 15th century, whose past splendor we can only imagine.

This path borders the Gouët river, which meanders along the mossy rocks, giving to see magical landscapes. If it has rained recently, the path will be muddy. It is therefore necessary to provide appropriate equipment: boots, walking sticks...

very beautiful rocks in the river that you can also walk on
