Calvaire et fontaine de Saint-Fiacre

Radenac

Built between the 15th and 16th centuries, the chapel of Saint-Fiacre at Radenac is said, according to local tradition, to be the work of the Templars or of the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem. It has the peculiarity of being double: two choirs, two naves separated by massive pillars and two distinct portals, the main Gothic nave standing beside a 16th-century side nave. A tombstone of a lord of Lantivy in knightly dress adorns the transept, while its adjoining fountain, studied as early as 1941 by the Société polymathique du Morbihan together with the confraternity that maintained it, perpetuates the devotion to Saint Fiacre, patron of gardeners and travellers. Calvary and fountain, listed as historic monuments along with the chapel, today form a rural ensemble typical of the inland Morbihan.
