Kerguntuil Megaliths
Highlight • Historical Site
Here is the translation of the information panel:
The stone monuments of Kerguntuil are remains from the late Neolithic period (around 2000 BC). The passage grave, consisting of several stone slabs, and the dolmen are two very fine examples of megaliths (assemblies of large stones) erected in Western Europe during this period.
Did you know that these passages were rediscovered in the 1930s thanks to the dedication of local volunteers who excavated and restored the monument? It is very likely that our ancestors used these monuments as collective burial sites. Today, these remains bear witness to the architectural genius of these prehistoric people, but also to their worldview. Look at the engravings inside, on the pillars of the mound foundation burial: These pairs of raised protrusions, engraved in relief, are said to represent breasts and the Great Mother Goddess of the Neolithic period.

view of Costaérès Island and Castle
Highlight • Castle
This was built on an islet bought by Bruno Abakanowicz (also called Bruno Abdank, who built a little later around 1896 the Hôtel Bellevue in Ploumanac'h), engineer and mathematician of Polish origin at the end of the century. summer 1892 to the customs officer René Le Brozec, a Perrosien who cultivated potatoes there and dried lichen and fish. The transaction at the time was 0.25 francs per square meter. It was completed around 1896 by the engineer Lanmoniez and the Lannionnais entrepreneur Pierre Le Tensorer. After her death in 1900, her daughter, Sofia Abakanowicz, who had become Madame Poray, had the villa extended by a wing to the west in return on the rear facade.
During the Second World War, the villa was requisitioned by the German army, and suffered some interior damage.
Following roofing work, on September 6, 1990, a fire partially destroyed the interior of the building. The image of this castle on its islet is often used to illustrate postcards and tourist guides of the Côte de granit rose, Côtes-d'Armor and Brittany. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Costa%C3%A9r%C3%A8s
