Saint-Suliac, Medieval fishing village in Brittany, France.
Saint-Suliac extends along the Rance River with granite houses from the 15th to 18th centuries featuring painted shutters and nautical decorations.
In 1597, during the Wars of Religion, 250 villagers lost their lives when 800 soldiers invaded the church where residents sought protection.
The village walls display numerous 19th-century Virgin statues, which residents installed to guard against diseases such as cholera.
The village center contains a network of lanes leading to the 13th-century church, accessible through ancient triumphal arches near the churchyard.
From the Virgin of Grainfollet statue positioned above Saint-Suliac, visitors can observe panoramic views of the Rance estuary and village below.

In France, each region hides villages that seem out of time. These places are made of stone, wood, and light, where history is written on facades and in paved streets. Some are nestled in valleys, others cling to cliffs or overlook vineyards. There are old houses, squares lined with arcades, castles, Romanesque churches, and sometimes a river winding between gardens. These villages have retained the charm of their era, the slow pace of residents, and the sound of wind in shutters. From Breton granite to Alsatian half-timbered houses, from southern golden limestone to Alpine shingle roofs, each tells a way of life, a color, an accent. They form the deep face of the country, one that is only visible when taking the time to stop.
