Children are welcome on all of the tours.
"Loch-Ronan"
Welcome to the so-called "Place of Ronan". Discover the story of its patron saint in the eponymous church, also home to one of the oldest stained glasses depicting the Passion of Christ in Brittany. All around this 675 years old building, the town square kept its appearance intact, with linen traders homes and the Linen Office, all built between the 16th and 18th centuries.
A lovely street leads us to a chapel with its fountain, before coming back up to the village's entrance via a forest path.
Warning: The street is quite steep, so this last stage is not recommended if you have knee pain. I therefore offer tours with or without this stage, depending on your preference.
Duration : 1h15, or 45 minutes excluding the chapel and fountain
Let's play with heritage!

Please note that this proposition was developed first and foremost for children aged between 4 and 12. It can also be enjoyable for adults who want to keep in touch with their inner child and want a surprising way of visiting Quimper, but it focused on amusement rather than information.
Advised duration : between 30min and 1h30, depending on the age and personnality of the child
