About Plounéour-Ménez

Plounéour-Ménez

The Plounéour-Ménez Parish close is located at Plounéour-Ménez in the arrondissement of Morlaix in Brittany in north-western France. The church Église Saint Yves was built in 1651 and there is evidence that it replaced an earlier and older church. The church and the "arc de triomphe" are a listed historical monument since 1914. The church at Plounéour-Ménez is dedicated to Saint Yves. Initially the enclos, constructed in granite, comprised the church itself, the cemetery situated around the church, an ossuary, a calvary positioned in the cemetery and a surrounding wall with several entrances, of which the main entrance is in the "Arc de Triomphe" style; the classic "enclos paroissial" in fact, but in time the cemetery was moved elsewhere and the ossuary destroyed. The church has nine transepts with large panelled aisles. The bell tower has no gallery and the clocheton on the spire was hit by lightning in 1847 and destroyed. The pulpit dates to the 17th Century and is richly decorated with carvings depicting the four evangelists and their attributes: an angel for Saint Matthew, a lion for Saint Mark, a bull for Saint Luke and an eagle for Saint John. Other carvings depict Abraham's sacrifice, the Pascal lamb, the Last Supper and Saint Peter's denial.
