This chapel, which did not suffer the ravages and destruction of the French revolution, has kept its original furniture intact. It deserves a visit.

Church, Parish Enclosure and Ossuary of Lampaul-Guimilau
Highlight • Religious Site
It is still located in the village, in the center of the parish. We say enclosed, because always closed and surrounded by a wall. In central Brittany, we always find this triptych associated: church, ossuary and parish enclosure.
The ossuary is also a Breton particularity: it is an openwork granite monument where the skulls, shins and various bones of the dead are carefully stored. A stylish way to make room in the cemetery. Some ossuaries are filled, others have been emptied of their contents.
The parish enclosure of Lampaul-Guimillau is absolutely remarkable. You can see the many character details of the statues.
It is an art that is both naive and severe. It's a bit like a comic book but sculpted. A real architectural and religious treasure of the rich Breton culture.
This enclosure is nicknamed "the tanners' enclosure". In 1780, there were more than 146 tanneries in the commune. The profits from this activity enabled the construction of this enclosure and the exceptional brilliance of its sculptures.

Saint-Miliau Church
Highlight • Other
The “enclosed parish”, as the translation for this Breton peculiarity, is home to widely famous architectural features and sacred sculptures in a very small space.

Guimilau
Highlight • Other
Today it is still the agricultural world that sustains the small town, but also tourism, as its town center is so picturesque and representative of a certain Brittany.
It's a bit postcard-perfect, but architecture enthusiasts will appreciate it.
