Notre Dame de Kernascléden : un patrimoine pictural de Bretagne

We are at the heart of the 15th century and work on the Notre-Dame chapel is coming to an end with the ornamentation of the vaults and interior walls. According to a fairly common rule in religious buildings, biblical scenes are painted in the choir, the lower chapels being reserved to illustrate the lives of saints, or representations of Paradise or Hell. At Kernascléden, the splendid paintings of the choir illustrate the life of Mary and the childhood of Jesus. Hell and Heaven are in their place and, associated with Hell, you can discover one of the two known examples of Danse macabre in Brittany. Meeting at 2.30 p.m. in the parking lot in front of the church of Kernascléden with Nathalie Le Pen, heritage mediator. Free. Duration: 1h30. Reservation required 02 97 23 23 23.
