All is perfect harmony in this church, whose single transept is lit by two elegant blazing canopies. The gate opening on the Eastern frontage of the tower is remarkable by its height, the depth and the relief of its mouldings. Inside, one admires the high altar whose trunk is decorated niches with pinnacles, in which the artist placed Our-Lord and the Evangelists. The retable is not less remarkable by its platforms, its planks and its tympanums Gothic. It rises gracefully until the height of the skirting, without masking the mistress-pane.

Each day, an unhappy population, the pickaxe with the hand, excavates the beach in all directions and withdraws from them sometimes fragments, sometimes secular trees any entireties. The meadows which border the strike and which undoubtedly touched with this wood or forest, are called PEN-rear-guern, three Breton words which mean head or beginning of the Aulnaie.
