Statues of animals of the facade (Box AN 244): inscription by decree of 12 December 1932

Origin and history

The chapel Saint-Fiacre is a religious building located in Crozon, in the Finistère department, Brittany. It is distinguished by its portal framed by a lion and a mermaid, emblematic elements of its architecture. Partly destroyed during World War II, it was restored in 1965, with the addition of a bell tower from the former chapel Saint-Nicodeme in Kergloff.

The chapel has been protected as historical monuments since 12 December 1932, especially for its statues of animals adorning the facade. These elements, inscribed by order, testify to the artistic and heritage importance of the site. The chapel now belongs to the municipality of Crozon and remains a place of visit for its history and architecture.

The monument is part of a regional context marked by a strong presence of chapels and religious buildings, reflecting the importance of faith and local traditions in Brittany. These buildings often served as gathering places for communities, playing a central role in the social and spiritual life of the inhabitants.
