Locronan is one of Brittany’s most legendary villages, where history and myth are deeply intertwined. According to tradition, the village takes its name from Saint Ronan, an Irish hermit who settled in the nearby forest during the 6th century. His life, marked by trials and miracles, gave birth to stories that are still told today and shaped the spiritual identity of the area.

Locronan is also famous for the Troménie, an ancient sacred procession that follows a route believed to trace Saint Ronan’s original territory. Held every six years, this unique event reflects a blend of early Christian beliefs and much older Celtic traditions, reminding visitors that the village was once a sacred place long before Christianity.

Surrounded by forests and hills, Locronan has retained a timeless atmosphere that naturally feeds the imagination. Legends of hidden forces, ancient rituals, and spiritual energy continue to surround the village, making it a fascinating place for families to explore together—where children and adults alike can step into the world of Breton legends while walking through one of France’s most beautiful villages.

The journey continues toward the coast, where thousands of standing stones rise from the earth at Carnac.
No one knows who placed them here. Some say they are a Roman legion turned to stone. Others believe they mark powerful energy lines drawn by druids.
 
Your guide lowers their voice and introduces the Korrigans—small, mischievous spirits said to guard these stones. They dance at night, confuse travelers, and punish those who show disrespect.
 
As you walk among the alignments, you begin to understand why people still speak in whispers here.
