In 1239, Bishop Raynaud commissioned the construction of Saint-Corentin Cathedral. It was built on the foundations of a Romanesque cathedral. Construction lasted three centuries. In 1410, the choir vaults were completed and the windows were installed. In 1424, construction began on the nave and the two towers of the facade. The reconstruction was completed in 1515. The two towers were finally finished between 1854 and 1856. A distinctive feature is its kink in the main axis. The reason for this design element is unclear. Several theories exist. One suggests that it emphasizes the crucifix. Another posits that it is due to the stability of the foundation. Yet another suggests that the kink reflects the inclined head of the crucified Jesus. Following the completion of renovations in December 1999, the cathedral can now be admired as it was decorated at the end of the 15th century. The same colors as in the original, i.e., ochre yellow and ochre red, were used in lime plaster on the rib vaults. Numerous chapels are situated around the chancel, dating from various periods between the 13th and 16th centuries. Excerpts from https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathedrale_Saint-Corentin

"The church, consecrated in honor of the Apostle Matthew, is the third building on the current site. The church was first mentioned in writing in 1209 when it was presented to the Bishop of Quimper by Guy de Thouars, Duke of Brittany. The parish of Saint-Mathieu was probably founded at the end of the 12th century by order of the Dukes of Brittany to serve the settlement that had formed west of the walled city of Quimper. [...] The current neo-Gothic parish church replaces a late Gothic building, consecrated on October 28, 1514, which had been built in the 15th/16th centuries on the site of an earlier Romanesque church. The west tower was built in 1845 according to plans by the diocesan architect Joseph Bigot. The nave, transept, and choir were built from February 1895 to 1897 according to designs by Gustave Bigot on a cruciform ground plan on the foundations of the Gothic church. The previous Gothic church had A large stained-glass window depicting the Passion of Christ was preserved; it was transferred to the new parish church. A 17th-century Crucifixion window also survives. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St-Mathieu_(Quimper)

Not exactly a highlight for road cyclists. But still a beautiful building.

Beautiful church near the city center.

In the middle of the city, the two towers of the cathedral rise up.

Quimper is the second largest city in the Finistère department and has a beautiful city center.

This old railway line is a boon for hikers. The path is sheltered from the sun for three-quarters of the way. The packed crushed stone ground is pleasant and barely deformed. Very good for mountain biking and gravel.
