Discover Lannebert

Lannebert offers two distinct points of interest for a trip: religious architectural history and fishing. Its religious buildings reveal successive historical layers, while the Leff and Kerguidoué, the rivers that flow through the area, attract anglers.

Rivers and fishing

The Leff is one of Lannebert’s two rivers and attracts anglers; the same is true of the Kerguidoué. These two named waterways offer a specific recreational activity alongside the historic buildings. If fishing is one of your travel interests, you can take this local feature into account when choosing your destination.

Chapelle Notre-Dame de Liscorno

The Chapelle Notre-Dame de Liscorno was built in the 13th century by the Lords of Coëtmen. Historical accounts say that the chapel quickly became a popular place of worship; they also mention pilgrimages, miracles, and healings. For travelers interested in the history of religious belief, it is a notable point of interest both as a building and for its traditions.

The chapel’s Pardon is held on the first Sunday in September; check the date before your trip.

The building history of the Église Saint-Evence

The present-day Église Saint-Evence is neo-Romanesque; its foundation stone was blessed on June 10, 1894. It was built on the site of a former chapel dating from 1482, which became a church in 1588. These dates mark different stages: first the older chapel, then its conversion into a church, and finally the blessing of the foundation stone of the present-day Église. The current church building thus continues an older religious history at the same site.

The nave is illuminated by numerous modern stained-glass windows, installed in 1969 by the Klein workshop in Rennes. Alongside the neo-Romanesque architecture, the glazing adds a later feature to the church interior. The building history and stained-glass design can therefore be seen as distinct aspects of the Église Saint-Evence.

Fontaine Saint-Évence in the town center

The Fontaine Saint-Évence offers a different point of interest: the fountain in the town center dates from the 18th century and is topped by a statue of Saint Évence. Unlike the Église, the focus here is not on a sequence of different building phases, but on a single object featuring a clearly identified religious figure. The fountain adds a distinct point of interest in the town center to Lannebert’s religious history.

A focus for your hotel search

Those interested in architectural history can explore different periods at the chapel and the Église, as well as stained-glass windows from 1969 in the church; fishing draws attention to the Leff and Kerguidoué. Consider which focus you want to shape your stay, and find a hotel in Lannebert to suit your travel plans.
