The Calvary was erected here in 1627 and was probably "cut down" during the Revolution. Therefore, only this part remains visible today.

The fountain was built in the first half of the 17th century and is intended to commemorate the hermit Saint Coval, who is said to have lived here around 600.

The fountain decorated with a statue of Saint-Gonval and the Calvary are the only remains of a 15th century chapel destroyed during the Second World War. The Crannou forest was, under the reign of Louis XIV, exploited for wood intended for naval construction. A house and its outbuildings were assigned to the Intendant directing the operation and the chapel was then served.

The Cranou forest is home to an arboretum, set up in 2008, extends over 14 hectares and is intended to study global warming. It is freely accessible for walkers. It succeeds the sylvetum created in 1970 by the National Forestry Office and the National Institute of Agronomic Research and which brings together 51 different species of deciduous and coniferous trees, planted there experimentally, in order to study their behavior for the purposes of reforestation in the context of a very humid oceanic climate (average annual rainfall: 1,173 mm) almost constantly (it rains as much in winter as in summer). As part of the arboretum, new species of trees are being planted (such as sweetgums, Douglas fir, Chilean araucaria, arrayans, etc.) and 150 different species are planned for the near future. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/For%C3%AAt_du_Cranou

A stream crosses the bridge and later becomes the river Faou. The place is shady and the children often come to play in the summer to cool down. It is possible to park there in front.
