Heritage classified
Cemetery, except parcels around the bedside of the church (see plan annexed to the decree) (Cd. AC 193): classification by decree of 27 October 1938
Origin and history
Locquirec Cemetery is a historic monument located in the municipality of the same name, in the Finistère department (29), in Brittany. It was classified by decree on 27 October 1938, with the exception of the parcels surrounding the bedside of the church, as specified in the plan annexed to the decree. This classification specifically concerns the cadastral plot AC 193, and the cemetery is now owned by the municipality of Locquirec.
The cemetery is located at the official address " rue de l'Église, 29241 Locquirec", although GPS coordinates suggest a position close to the "52 Nouvelle Côte". The accuracy of this location is estimated as "passible" (note 5/10) based on available data. This place, integrated with the urban and religious fabric of Locquirec, reflects the importance of funeral spaces in the small Breton communes, often linked to parish and community history.
Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum base, confirm its status as a Historical Monument, but do not provide detailed information on its exact origin, possible transformations or its precise role in local history beyond its funeral function.
