Although I often stop in churches or chapels on my walks (if the door is not locked), I have never come across a place of worship that is dedicated to the patronage of Saint-NICODEME. The person of Nicodemus takes us far back to the Holy Land in Jesus' time; he is mentioned several times by at least one of the four evangelists. I did some more research this morning: In his version of the "Good News" (this is the meaning of the word "gospel"), John describes the encounter of a Nicodemus, a scribe and member of the Jewish High Council, who visits Jesus at night and has a discussion with him about faith (John 3:1-21). Later, at the meeting of the High Council, he speaks in Jesus' favor: "But Nicodemus, one of their own, who had previously visited Jesus, said to them, 'Does our law condemn a man before it has examined him and found out what he does?'" (John 7:50-51). After the crucifixion, it is Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus who bury the body with dignity (John 19:38-42).

The chapel is nestled close to the rocks on the other side of the river. It can be reached via hiking trails on the other side.

Quistinic offers visitors everything authentic Brittany has to offer. The village of Poul Fetan which is part of the commune largely explains its success. Its numerous woods, streams and valleys located on the banks of the Blavet, as well as 120 kilometers of hikes spread around the town will seduce you.

A fantastic trail through the forest. Take a forest bath and enjoy nature on this stunning stretch of trail.

This small chapel was built in the 17th century and dedicated to Saint Roch, the patron saint of plague victims. It is surrounded by a forest of oaks and chestnut trees and has a fountain where pilgrims sprinkled their horses with holy water. The chapel also has a collection of horseshoes hanging on the wall, testimony to devotion to Saint Eloi, protector of horses. Inside the chapel, you can admire the statues of Saint Roch and Saint Eloi, as well as the stained glass window and the granite altar.

La Chapelle Sainte-Barbe is a 15th century chapel perched on a rocky cliff overlooking the Ellé. It is accessed by a monumental staircase with balusters. The chapel has a stone ribbed vault, stained glass windows and the coat of arms of the founding lords. The site is part of the route to Santiago de Compostela and every year hosts a festival in honor of Sainte-Barbe, patroness of miners and artillerymen. The chapel is open to visitors from July to August and offers guided tours.

This road takes you parallel to the Bavet river. You will enjoy the views of the river as you walk along it.

The Glayo mill is a historic mill located on the banks of the Blavet in Quistinic. It is a grain mill which dates from the 18th century, and which was formerly associated with a windmill. The mill has a large wooden wheel powered by river water and a stone building which houses the machines and millstones. You can visit the mill and learn more about its history and how it works thanks to the signs installed on the site. The mill is also a popular fishing and picnic spot, as it provides a peaceful and picturesque setting along the river.
