I TRIED FOR YOU

I am , your pathfinder in Bretagne Sud.


The village of Saint Colomban is a hamlet located in Carnac. It is composed of old Breton houses, all restored.

The chapel of Saint Colomban is dedicated to the Irish monk Colomban de Luxeuil who is said to have landed on the Carnac coast around 610.
The walls of the nave are decorated with graffiti depicting ships. This is the representation of two 16th-century English galleons - the oldest in the department - which could refer to a British foray into Locmariaquer in 1548.

The village is accessible by road but also by a coastal path starting from the beach of Saint Colomban.

Next door you can visit the oyster parks of the Po.
