Excalibur

Excalibur is a metal sword sculpture rising from stone near Lake Trémelin, representing the mythical weapon from King Arthur legends. The installation features a large blade piercing a rock formation, recreating the iconic scene from Arthurian mythology.

The sculpture was inspired by medieval stories of King Arthur and the legendary forest of Brocéliande, believed to be located in this region. This connection transforms the site into a meeting point between historical legend and contemporary artistic interpretation of Arthurian tales.

The site connects regional folklore with Arthurian legend and serves as a gathering place for those interested in Celtic mythology and Breton heritage. Visitors often come here to engage with stories rooted in this landscape.

The site is accessible via marked paths near Lake Trémelin, with wheelchair-accessible routes available for all visitors. Plan your visit on clear days to fully enjoy the views and the setting around the monument.

The sculpture offers photographers opportunities to capture images at sunrise and sunset over the lake, creating dramatically different visual effects depending on the time of day. The interplay of light on the metal blade changes constantly throughout the day.
