14th Century Road Cross, Stone (Box C 142): Registration by Order of 7 October 1964

Origin and history

The Tréglamus Stone Road Cross is an emblematic monument located in the municipality of Tréglamus, Brittany. Dated from the 14th century, this cross is representative of the religious and funeral buildings that marked the paths and intersections of the Middle Ages. Its registration as a Historic Monument by decree of 7 October 1964 bears witness to its heritage value and the desire to preserve this type of rural heritage.

The cross of paths, like that of Tréglamus, played an important role in the daily life of the Breton medieval communities. They served as landmarks for travellers, places of prayer or commemoration, and often marked parish boundaries or assembly points. Their presence also reflected the importance of the Christian religion in the social and spatial organization of the countryside at that time.

According to the available data, this cross is located near the N.N. 12 in the Côtes-d-Armor department (22), in Brittany. Practical information about his visit or access is not detailed in the sources, but his approximate location is identified as 4 Traou Ker in Tréglamus. The accuracy of its location is estimated as fair, with a score of 5 out of 10.
