Chapel Saint-They, Gothic chapel at Pointe du Van, Cléden-Cap-Sizun, France
Saint-They Chapel stands at the edge of high cliffs overlooking the sea, featuring multiple altars, tabernacles, and a canopied altar inside the stone structure.
The chapel was established in 1538, as confirmed by a Gothic inscription in the Breton language carved on its southern facade mentioning Saints Tremeur and Gildas.
Four annual pilgrimages historically gathered at the chapel, with the main celebration taking place on the first Sunday of July, drawing people from across the region.
The chapel maintains regular opening hours for visitors through a local association that completed restoration work to preserve the religious monument.
A bell within the chapel originates from an English ship called Durham that sank near Trez-Goarem in Primelin, adding maritime heritage to its religious significance.
