The fountains of Kerlouan

THE SAINT EGAREC FOUNTAIN:

It is located below the Saint Egarec chapel. The statue which surmounts it represents Saint Hervé and his wolf. It is carved from Kersanton granite.

A few steps lead to the source which would have the virtue of treating earaches. For this, it is advisable to dip a piece of silver in the source, to apply it to the diseased region and to leave the piece on the altar of the chapel.

 

THE FOUNTAINS OF SAINT SAUVEUR:

They are two below the chapel. The first fountain opens out under this shelter, renovated by the Environment and Heritage association. He had a little Madonna covered with several clothes in the Gypsy fashion.

The other water source supplies the wash house. He was credited with predicting whether a child with bronchial disease was on the road to recovery. It is located below the Saint Egarec chapel.
