Kerdevot Brittany

The village centre

Kerdevot is a small village a few miles from Quimper where we had spent the morning.We decided to try a different route home via Elliant to our cottage at Saint Yvi. We drove into Kerdevot and straight out it is only about 100 yds from one end to the other.fortunately we saw the church and turn round and went back.

The centre of the village has a grass area with picnic tables like a English village green.There are a few nice houses around the green and then this very large old church. We drove down to the church there is a car park right opposite where we stopped and had a coffee and just looked at this great old building.The village is surrounded by fields and trees as you can see in the photos

The village itself is centered around the fifteenth-century church of St. Jean Baptiste, which is renowned for its beautiful stained glass windows and its fifteenth-century murals. The church is surrounded by a cobblestone road that leads to the fountain, which is one of the village's most popular landmarks.
