The term "basilica," used above by Vincent Reboul, can have two different meanings for places of worship: + First, as an architectural style: In the Roman Empire, basilicas were secular buildings (market halls or courtrooms); the early Christian era partially adopted this architectural style and, for this purpose, also the term "basilica." + Second, "basilica minor" is an honorary title for special places of worship throughout the world (regardless of the aforementioned architectural style), which has been personally awarded by the Pope since the 18th century.

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).

I didn't know this place at all, it is magnificent and full of beautiful stones, granite and beautiful forests

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.

This chapel is so imposing in its dimensions and importance that it is known here as the Basilica. It is a marvel of 15th century architecture which features numerous gargoyles and a 70 meter high bell tower. All in pure Breton granite.

There are 28 locks which allow navigation between Pontivy and Hennebont. These structures, built in the 19th century, are still very important for the many pleasure boats. The lock keeper moves from one lock to another to allow boats to continue their journey in the Blavet valley.

Dramatic boulders along the towpath in a 300 degree loop of the river

Superb route to go from central Brittany (Caurel or Guerledan) to Quiberon without going through the main roads
