Tips from the Community

Fred Urrutia
April 8, 2025, Lac de l'Arguenon

Nestled between valleys and forests, Lake Arguenon covers nearly 200 hectares. Created by a dam in 1972, it serves as a drinking water reservoir and also attracts fishermen and hikers. The trails around the lake offer superb views, perfect for enjoying in peace and quiet.

Gilles van Bretagne lived here in the 15th century, a poet and womanizer who lived a merry life, hence the expression "courir le guilledou" (to go on a woman hunt). But his brother, Duke Francis I of Brittany, suspected Gilles of plotting and had him imprisoned. Because he didn't die fast enough, he was then strangled. Before his death, however, Gilles subjected his brother to divine judgment and the duke also died, tormented by remorse

The Château du Guildo is located on a rocky outcrop, on the edge of the Arguenon estuary. This stronghold offered a strategic defensive position. It allowed control of both maritime and land passages. The current version of the castle was built from the 14th century. During excavations, however, traces of a first castle dating from the 11th century were found.

The stained glass windows retrace the life of Saint Mary, Ever Virgin, Mother of God and Mother of the Church. A particularity of this church: it preserves a very old statue of Our Lady that a Breton peasant found at the bottom of a stream. The Most Blessed Virgin Mary confirmed the sanctity of this place by granting it some miraculous graces.

Surprising passage in the city center of Plancoët. It's quite unexpected. This "Grand Passage" is actually the refuge of the mural fresco. The "Street Art" is generally rather ugly, but in Plancoët, it is very suitable.
