Tips from the Community
Built in 1865 by the Countess of Cossé-Brissac, this chapel was built in homage to Saint Anne, in accordance with the promise made at the birth of her daughter. It is distinguished by its door surmounted by a rosette-shaped stained-glass window and a steeple with a granite balcony. Modest in size, the chapel was initially reserved exclusively for the service of the lords of the manor.

Saint Anna is the mother of the Blessed Mother Mary, who is not attested in the biblical texts, i.e. the grandmother of Jesus Christ. However, it is mentioned in apocryphal (i.e. not included in the canon of the Bible) writings, for example in the so-called “Protoevangelium of James”. There is no historically reliable information about Anna's life, but there are numerous traditional stories, which are summarized, for example, in the medieval "Legenda Aurea" by the Dominican monk Jacobus de Voragine. Among other things, she is the patroness of the St. Anna Church in Düren (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany), where a piece of her skull has been kept as a relic since the beginning of the 16th century. In the church calendar, Saint Anna's memorial day - together with her husband Joachim - is on July 26th.

North of the village of Le Faouët, on a ridge, stands the late Gothic Chapel of Sainte-Barbe, built between 1489 and 1512. A remarkable Renaissance staircase leads down to the chapel, which is located just below the summit plateau. - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Faou%C3%ABt_(Morbihan)#Kapelle_Sainte-Barbe - https://www.france-voyage.com/frankreich-stadte/le-faouet-20502/kapelle-sainte-barbe-15016.htm
