A Benedictine priory, dependent from the abbey of Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer existed here, when a first nave got erected in Carolingian style in the early 12th century. The Romanesque transept was completed end of the 12th century, while the Gothic choir and facade were added 14th and 15th century. Meanwhile the church serves the parish. Though it is quite a large structure it is called "Chapelle Notre-Dame de Kernitron". Standing in the old nave facing east to the Gothic choir. The pillars at the crossing are really massive. Well, they support the heavy crossing tower.

The tympanum, seen here, was carved by the medieval artist into to soft schist, so it is very weathered. It obviously depicts Christ (in a mandorla) and the symbols of the evangelists.
