This is not the case everywhere, but here a lot of effort has been put into putting markings on the road to "protect" cyclists - even in town.

Notre-Dame de Bonne-Nouvelle Church

Highlight • Religious Site

It is the church of the priory, which is under the jurisdiction of Landevennec Abbey. It is a 16th-century building with a rectangular plan with a three-part bedside table and an asymmetrical five-part sacristy. A transept to the south. The nave has two collaterals. The west facade is very elaborate: the central door, in arch with a basket handle, is framed by prismatic strips and docked with pilasters or prismatic columns in a spiral. A counter curve leaves the crown, beginning to show Renaissance style elements.

Hôpital-Camfrout

Highlight • Settlement

Hôpital-Camfrout, more commonly called "l'Hôpital-Camfrout", is a pretty little town where the Camfrout river flows into Brest harbor. With more than 2,000 inhabitants, it offers numerous shops, practical for itinerants on the GR 34. If the schedule invites you to do so, stop by the village church, built in the 16th century with help stones extracted from neighboring quarries.

Le Faou

Highlight • Other

Among the villages and hamlets which bear witness to the history of the Aulne maritime valley, Le Faou is one of the must-sees. This small town of character brings together beautiful 16th century corbelled houses, a church with a fine Renaissance bell tower and a port. Near the town, the church of Rumengol stands on the remains of a Druid altar.

Saint-Sauveur Church of Le Faou

Highlight • Religious Site

Eglise Saint-Sauveur Le Faou

The church was founded by the Knights Hospitallers of the Order of St. John. The building was rebuilt in 1544 and 1680, with a beautiful domed Renaissance-style bell tower and overlooking the harbor. Its short nave contrasts with a large double transept. The church tower, very high, dates from 1629, the porch bears the dates 1593 and 1613 and has preserved the wooden statues of the twelve apostles, the apse (in Beaumanoir style) dates from 1680. The high altar and the two confessionals date from the 17th century, as well as the baptismal font: the baptismal font with snakes is unique in Brittany for the richness of its sculptures. Numerous statues decorate the church, including those of Notre-Dame de Pitié, two virgin mothers, Saint Herbot, Saint Yves, Saint Éloi, Saint Barbe, etc.
