UNE CHAUMIERE DE KERASCOET...

BRITTANY...

 

The hamlet of Kerascoët includes a series of thatched houses called Cottages of Kerascoët. The village is a typical Breton village dating from the sixteenth century, it was renovated in 1993.

 

Part of Névez, a town in the department of Finistère, in Brittany, France.

 

The main originality of the heritage of the village lies in the granite that was extracted from nearby quarries and of course the thatched roofs! It was used to build the houses, blocks of nearly two meters high were cut on site and erected as a wall.

 

These standing stones are a feature of the rural and authentic Brittany.

 

No cars allowed, a real tourist 'trap' but still interesting!
