Origin and history

The chapel Saint-Antoine de Tressignaux, located in the municipality of the same name in Brittany, is a religious building built between the 15th and 16th centuries.

The interior consists of a nave accompanied by a low side leading to the choir, reflecting a classical structure of chapels of this time.

Classified as a Historical Monument by decree of 22 October 1913, the chapel is now owned by the municipality of Tressignaux. Its architecture and decorative elements bear witness to Breton Renaissance religious art, while integrating local influences. Although the sources do not specify its current use, its protected status suggests a recognized heritage value.
