"At the beginning there had been the request of Father Le Pipe: a place that leads to prayer and that is from here: Breton, Vannes. So granite, wood, slate", remembers Jacque-Henri Maisonneuve, architect of this building with Eric Kasper. The Saint-Guen Church, built in 1966 and certified as a Remarkable Heritage of the 20th Century, offers visitors a fine example of religious architecture that combines spiritual research with modern architectural forms.
