This former episcopal city of St Pol de Leon lies in a fertile area on the northwestern coast of Brittany. Its Cathedral of St-Pol, which was modeled on Coutance Cathedral, was begun in the 13th C on the site of an earlier church and completed in the 16thC. It has fine stalls (16th C), beautiful 16th C windows and a 15th C rose window. A Romanesque sarcophagus serves as a holy water stoup. The Chapelle du Kreisker, to the south of the cathedral, dates from the 14th and 15th centuries; its imposing tower was imitated in many Breton churches.
