Sights

Church of Saint Léon

The church of Saint Léon was built in the 15th century of Bécherel granite. It was classified as a historic monument in 1926. Although they are damaged, the stained-glass windows are an excellent example of 16th-century art. Two of the panels can be attributed to Guyon Collin.[1]
