Ruins of Saint-Mathieu Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

The ruins of the abbey facing the sea give the place a special atmosphere. Abandoned after the Revolution, it contrasts with the lighthouse and its technological equipment right next to it.

The Saint-Mathieu lighthouse is classified as a historic monument. It was the first fire in Finistère. It peaks at 37 meters high. Tours are organized, if you are not afraid to climb the 163 steps that lead to its summit.

So if you are in the vicinity you should take a look at this lovingly furnished museum. The absolute highlight and new for us was the animation where you can experience a bomb attack in the imitation basement bunker. Entrance fee is totally ok, 8.50€ and all boards are written in German.
