in an old quarry

Very easy, flat and quiet path in a superb forest. Very rolling for bike and gravel outings

The Resistance Museum in Argoat introduces you to the Plésidy maquis and its daily life under the Occupation. Its exhibition tells you the story of the Second World War and the Resistance in the west of the Côtes d'Armor. The museum has a rich collection of period documents and objects as well as photos. As you enter, you will see a fairly old bicycle hanging on the wall, and its history is most exciting. It was given to the Museum by Fernand Trochel, cyclist and bike repairer on Guingamp during the Second World War. Fernand was a liaison agent for the maquis of Plésidy-Saint-Connan but also for the Shelburn network, a branch of the British secret services. Every day, he traveled nearly 150 kilometers, criss-crossing the department by bicycle. He was provided with a pass issued by the German authorities so that he could "officially" continue his cycling training. He took advantage of this cover to distribute mail, which he hid in his pedal box, to the various Resistance networks. If you want to learn more about his story, the museum offers his book for sale. Opening hours: Wednesday and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
