Tréguier

Old episcopal city

Above the rooftops soars the openwork spire of its cathedral, 63 m high. Built in the early 12th century in Gothic style, Saint-Tugdual Cathedral is one of the most beautiful in Brittany. After the finesse of its porches, you can admire a pulpit entirely decorated with floral motifs, the surprising bestiary engraved in the choir stalls and the tomb of Saint Yves.
Tréguier is also a city of spirit and generosity, of meditation and critical sense, which inspired over the centuries men of letters, men of the cloth and men of God from Saint-Tugdual to Saint Yves and from Ernest Renan to Anatole Le Bras.

Tour of the Cloister (30 min)

Ernest Renan’s Childhood Home

Born into an impoverished family, Ernest Renan (1823-1892) was a brilliant scholarship student who was destined to become a priest. However, he left the seminary in 1845. His works examine the Gospels in the light of a demanding scientific criticism, scandalizing the clergy and the royalist Catholic right. A respected scholar throughout Europe, Renan received all the honors: he was a member of the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles Lettres, a professor at the Collège de France, an academician, and an officer of the Legion of Honor.

Built at the end of the sixteenth century, this house, typical of the architecture of the Trégor region, was acquired in 1780 by the scholar’s grandparents. Renan left it forever at the age of 15. It became a museum in 1947. In 1992, during the ceremonies of the centenary of the author, the facade on the street receives a carved wooden decoration.

The Chapel of the Paulines

Installed in Tréguier in 1699, the Paulines visited the sick and ran a charity office. They also took care of the education of poor young girls. They are the ones who are at the origin of the construction of the chapel in 1760.
At the Revolution, they will be chased out of Tréguier and the chapel will become in turn a warehouse and then a fire station before being rehabilitated.
It opens today its doors to the general public as a cultural space.
