Hénan Castle

Highlight • Other

Located in the commune of Névez in Finistère, the Château du Hénan is located on the banks of the Aven. It has a large main door dating from the 15th century that gives access to the building. Remodeled in the 16th century, the logis body is not lacking in charm. The castle is privately owned and has a closed enclosure.
It is possible to take a walk around the Château du Hénan to discover, among other things, the arboretum, the three fountains, the Sainte-Marguerite chapel or the tidal mill. The tidal mill was built in the 15th century and functions by the inflow and outflow of the tides in the Aven and is listed as a major historical monument.

Hénan Tidal Mill

Highlight • Monument

The mill dates from the 15th century and belonged to the Seigneurie du Hénan. It works thanks to the ebb and flow of the river subject to the tides and constitutes a historic monument of great beauty. The cut stones are imposing and come from the Kerochet quarry located one kilometer further down the river. The roof is original: it is a hipped roof with a break which indicates that the roof was originally thatched.
