Tour de Kerroc'h, Religious tower in Ploubazlanec, France.

The Tour de Kerroc'h stands on Mount Krec'h Mahaf with an octagonal granite base and features a statue of the Virgin Mary at its peak.

Built in the nineteenth century following Abbot Guennou's plans, the tower replaced an initial project for a simple statue of Mary on the hill.

The tower incorporates an altar dedicated to Saint Anne and displays a sculpture of the Holy Family, reflecting local religious traditions.

Visitors can access the site throughout the year and benefit from optimal visibility conditions in the morning to photograph Paimpol Bay.

This granite structure combines the functions of a religious monument and a maritime landmark for regional navigators.

Beautiful view over the entire bay of Paimpol. Small parking nearby. A small shaded walk of 5-10 minutes before admiring the tower and the landscape.
