The chapel was built in the 11th century by the monks of Saint-Gildas de Rhuys, who owned property and land in the village. The site was still prosperous in the 19th century, frequented by nurses who came to pray for abundant milk. In the 20th century, its roof collapsed and the chapel fell into ruins. On a local initiative, it was rebuilt in the 1990s. Inside, the frame has been reproduced identically. The windows of the choir and the transept once again welcome stained glass windows. The sand pits, like the drip trees outside, are sculpted with fantastic characters and animals.
