A perfect spot for a post ride coffee.

It is possible to take the rope bridge by bike but it is very busy.

A chapel under the protection of Saint Nicholas, patron saint of sailors, adjoining the hospital building was erected after 1600. In the Gothic style, this small building with its two ogival windows and its west gable adorned with a stone boat was remodeled in the 18th century. In 1661, a priest, Ollivier Henry, was installed there to "instruct and guide the poor, hear their confessions, administer extreme unction, and bury them." Engagements, weddings, and funerals were celebrated there. A few generous donors were allowed to be buried there. During the American Revolutionary War, to guard against any English incursion, the army installed artillery pieces on the coast. These were stored in the chapel "much to the dismay" of the priest, who, reduced to being able to accommodate only a few worshippers for services, also saw a decrease in income from collections. On March 29, 1789, breaking the contract that bound them to Saint-Paul, the heads of the Roscoff families gathered there to draw up their own "book of grievances." https://www.roscoff-tourisme.com/fr/fiche/patrimoine-culturel/chapelle-saint-nicolas-roscoff_TFOPCUBRE029V52PKN5/

Apparently the set wasn't picked up - it's still hanging on the wall.

There's some information I didn't have yet. We have time to read – even over a coffee at the Tabac Bar.

Velodysee route - turn left as you leave Roscoff ferry port access road. However if time allows, turn right and go into Roscoff town itself. Even 15 - 20 mins cycling around will be a rewarding experience.

Built on the remains of a Romanesque cathedral from the 11th century, the Gothic cathedral of Saint-Paul-Aurélien, a minor basilica known as the Annunciation, has a remarkable nave from the 12th century in Caen limestone, a complex almost unique in Brittany, and a choir in granite from the 15th century.

Raising its spire almost 80 metres high, the Kreisker chapel (14th/15th century) is the tallest bell tower in Brittany and the most beautiful example of openwork bell towers. Its dozens of openings do not provide any wind protection. Its reconstruction after the fire of 1375 is attributed to an English architect. The building was, until the 16th century, a municipal chapel, housing the deliberations of the city council and then, until the Revolution, which brought down the bells, the chapel of both the Grand Seminary and the Collège de Léon. In 1806, the Kreisker was attached again to the Coliège de Léon, which in the 20th century became the Institution Notre-Dame du Kreisker.
