The Route des Falaises is one of France's most spectacular coastal routes. For 58 kilometers between Tréveneuc and Beauport Abbey near Paimpol, Brittany's highest cliffs tower up to 104 meters into the sky. But the rugged northern coast is far more than a natural spectacle—it's a history book in stone.

From here you can admire the breathtaking views of this charming coastal hamlet nestled in a quiet bay. As you cycle along the rugged paths, you will see the turquoise waters and sandy beach below, framed by lush vegetation and cliffs. Bréhec is a peaceful place where you can take a break and appreciate its picturesque harbour and traditional Breton houses which add to the beauty of the landscape of this high place.

This chapel is actually called "Notre Dame de la Garde", which in German probably means "Madonna of the Protective Cloak". Over the centuries, many sailors have prayed here before and after setting off to fish in Newfoundland or Iceland and given thanks for a safe return home, which was and is by no means a given. The round building is unique in Brittany. We also like to light a candle every now and then with thoughts of trust, requests and thanks for so many good things that we are allowed to experience!

We were very surprised when we drove down the mountain and suddenly saw this architecturally very remarkable church in front of us. The entrance area is particularly beautifully decorated with the statutes of the apostles and a Madonna from the 14th century. The altarpiece shows a scene that is not often shown: Jesus and the children that he calls to him, even though his disciples try to stop them.

This church and Pommorio Castle are connected by a direct path, and the large gate at the beginning of the path, which has no protective character, separates them. It is interesting that this church is dedicated to St. Columba, an Irish-Scottish monk. We have rarely found these monks in this area, but we know them well from our homeland of Austria.
