Built in the 17th century, the Saint-Paul church was remodeled in the 19th century. It is made up of a porch tower, a nave covered with paneling overlooking the aisles via three low arcades, a choir and a two-story sacristy. In the south aisle there is a three-sided chapel covered with polygonal hipped paneling40. (on the bell tower we can read the date "1852" and on the sacristy "1829").

The trail partly runs along the Chemin des Templiers. After spring tides and heavy rainfall it is boggy in some areas. For hikers there is a parallel narrow path a little above.

The town was born in the 11th century around a castle built by the lord of Matignon, whose heiress married Étienne Gouyon in the 12th century. It was a descendant of this lineage, Jacques III de Gouyon, lord of Matignon and de la Roche Gouyon, who bought in Paris in 1723 the private mansion then under construction which later became the residence of the Prime Minister. The son of the same Jacques III married Louise-Hippolyte Grimaldi and became Prince of Monaco. The current sovereigns are his descendants. Prince Albert thus holds, among other titles, that of Lord of Matignon. This is why during an event occurring in the princely family, the bells of the Breton village church are rung. If the original castle has disappeared, Matignon has a heritage of interest and offers the image of a village of nearly 1,700 inhabitants which combines the charms of the coast and the tranquility of a prosperous countryside.
