Why take advantage?

The little chapel of Saint Samson, dating from the second half of the 18th century, offers a marvellous panorama facing the ocean. Below the chapel flows a fountain whose miraculous virtue was used not so long ago. Children were immersed in the fountain to give them strength.

The presence of a Gallic stele near the fountain attests to the ancient sacralization of the site.

Behind the hamlet, a menhir set into an embankment, which people used to rub against to relieve their rheumatism, takes us even further back in time, reinforcing Saint Samson's healing function.
