The Saint-Philibert's chapel (French: Chapelle Saint-Philibert) is a former Roman Catholic chapel in Trégunc in Brittany.[1]

History

Saint-Philibert's chapel became a parish church in 1946. It is curiously built on a hillside, and the nave there is a drop of 1.23 meter. The various construction dates are known thanks to an inscription: "END THE YEAR 1558 A BA 1575 DONE".[2]
