Making bread "artisanal way".
Chapel: Dedicated to Saint-André, a rare Saint in Brittany, this charming chapel built with the stones of another has survived thanks to the enthusiasm of its villagers.
Very few monuments in Brittany are dedicated to Saint Andrew, brother of Saint Peter, and who was the first of the apostles to recognize Jesus Christ, immediately after his baptism on the banks of the Jordan. He went to evangelize Greece, but ended up crucified under the emperor Nero, in the year 60.
Choosing martyrdom rather than denial, he was exposed to the crowd that eventually became moved by his preaching. They then wanted to bring him down from his cross, but the bonds did not yield and he died two days later in a great halo.
Having evangelized around the Black Sea, he is considered the patron saint of the Romanian church, the Russian navy and our Morbihan chapel.
It is located on the village of Saint-André, which already existed in the 17th century, but its chapel had disappeared. At the beginning of the 19th century, the deans of Péaule decided to rebuild it with the remains of the old chapel of the Pont de l'Étier, a village to the east that had been destroyed during the revolution.
The choice of location also made it possible to refocus the chapel in the Dean’s Palace. As it gradually deteriorated, it was restored in 2014. The financing of the restoration work was made possible thanks to the enthusiasm of the villagers and to the celebrations of districts dedicated to the trades organized for several years on July 14 with great success.
The bell was thus placed to consolidate the walls, the supports of the beams were changed and the panelling of the vault redone.
