New cafe just on the way out of Pontivy owned by a very friendly and helpful gentleman with lots of experience and tips. He will soon have a bike repair station too! Top!

A great detour to Saint Aignan, the Les Pêcheries de Guerlédan restaurant is very welcoming, with bike parking, a generous meal and welcome. Crossing the village, you can reach the canal a little further on via the lock.

The old castle is now partially open to the public. It looks very defensive.

This small village attracts up to 80,000 pilgrims each year who come to pay homage to Saint-Elouan. The remains of this saint were found within this commune. “Elouan” means “good light” in the Celtic language. His tomb and fountain are attached to the chapel which also bears his name. The development of the cult of these Breton saints developed in the Middle Ages, when families of the aristocracy appropriated their legends. This justification is based on genealogical arguments, the particular protection of a saint or his adoption as a substitute ancestor in their lineages. To date, there are more than 180 saints in Brittany.

This very beautiful chapel dedicated to Saint-Tugdual was built in 1540. It has the particularity of being topped with a statue of Saint Michael slaying the dragon. It is one of the most beautiful buildings in the canton of Guéméné-sur-Scorff.
