Origin and history
La Croix de Saint-Guéhen is a religious monument located in the commune of Saint-Carreuc, in the Côtes-d'Armor department, Brittany. Dating from the 18th century, it embodies the Christian architectural heritage of this period, marked by artistic and symbolic achievements designed to mark the rural landscape.
The cross was inscribed as historical monuments by an order of 22 January 1927, thereby recognizing its heritage value. This type of monument, frequent in Brittany, often served as a spiritual or commemorative landmark for local communities, reflecting their attachment to faith and traditions.
Located precisely at 56 Saint-Guihen, 22150 Saint-Carreuc, the cross is now owned by the municipality. Its location, although documented, is considered to have average geographic accuracy (level 5 of 10). It remains a material testimony of the religious and social history of the region, accessible to the public as part of the communal heritage.
