Artichoke Fields Overlooking the Sea

Highlight • Viewpoint

The sheer quantity of artichokes growing here is incredible but the backdrop makes these fields even more notable. As you pedal along the Eurovelo from Roscoff, you're greeted by sweeping views of the craggy coastline with a foreground of these spiky, bulbous vegetables.

Roscoff Historic Centre

Highlight • Historical Site

Roscoff is classified among the small towns of character. In addition to its pretty historic center, the city is known for its cultivation of pink onions that residents sold in England. A museum is dedicated to him. A ferry serves Plymouth in a six-hour crossing.

Old Town, Roscoff

Highlight • Settlement

Nice harbor town, where the street scene is still determined by stately granite shipowners' houses. The atmospheric coastal town not only has a renowned thelassotherapy centre, which uses the beneficial effects of seawater and algae, but also has a bustling harbor with ferry services to plymouth and Cork.

Church of Our Lady of Croas-Batz

Highlight • Religious Site

The construction of the church was undertaken around 1520 on a dune, land taken from the sea, at the initiative of the city's shipowners. The sacred perimeter contains the church, 2 ossuary chapels, one Gothic, the other Henry II style, as well as a funerary monument. The church is in flamboyant Gothic style.

The Renaissance bell tower dates from 1575-1576, it is made up of pinnacles chiseled in the granite. The facades of the church are punctuated with stone caravels and 18 figured crossettes, men and beasts.
The first ossuary was built in the 16th century to cope with the shortage of space in the cemetery surrounding the church. The second ossuary dates from the 17th century.

Notre-Dame du Kreisker Chapel

Highlight • Historical Site

The chapel is renowned for its beautiful bell tower** It was modeled on the tower of the Eglise St-Pierre in Caen, the granite version from Brittany even surpassing the model. Even Vauban was delighted with this "marvel of poise and audacity". The upper part with the spire is in Norman style, the lower part with the diamond pattern of the window crosses and the overhanging balcony reflects the influence of the so-called perpendicular style, late English Gothic.
The interior is largely closed off by a wooden barrel vault. The only stone vault connects the four huge piers in the crossing that support the tower.
The tower can be climbed (169 steps). From the platform, a beautiful view of the city, the île de Batz, the coast and the Monts d'Arrée unfolds.
