Next to the Chapelle Notre-Dame de Tronoën is the large calvary, one of the landmarks of Brittany. Erected 1450/1470, this is the oldest of the great calvaries in Brittany. The rectangular base measures 4,5m x 3,5m. Under the crucifiction (Jesus and the two thieves) are two friezes, depicting themes from the New Testament. There are lots of scenes and details.
