There are many reasons to visit Peumerit, whether you’re looking for a day trip, on a quest for megaliths or visiting the Parc de la Pommeraie. Peumerit is just 25 minutes from Quimper, in the heart of Pays Bigouden.

Getting there

The countryside a stone's throw from the sea

Situated halfway between Pouldreuzic and Plonéour-Lanvern, Peumerit has always been ideally placed for development thanks to its heritage and unusual features.

In the village and along the country lanes, there are many sites to explore including church and chapel, the Pommeraie farm park, granite crosses and megalithic stones.

Putting down your bags in a small village for the holidays also means discovering local life in a small Breton village.

    Chappelle Saint-Joseph - Peumerit

    Office de Tourisme Pays bigouden

      Situated in a green enclosure, the chapel dedicated to Saint Joseph and Saint Anne was founded in 1645 by the Lords of Rubien, then sold as national property in 1795 to Maître Le Hars, notary, who had his name engraved on the façade.

      During the pre-revolutionary period, clandestine services were held here. The building was reopened to worship in the 19th century.

      Today, the enclosure is home to a delightful local farmers’ market, a meeting place for lovers of local gastronomy, particularly cheese, milk, bread, vegetables and honey. From February to November.

        The church of Saint-Annouarnand its statue of Saint Yves are thought to have been built between the 1100s and 1500s, and restored in 1741. The choir, the oldest part of which dates from the 1300s, contains a number of features characteristic of the Pont-Croix architectural style.

            Saint-Joseph and its farmers' market

            If there’s one particularly pleasant and convivial moment in the local life of this Bigouden village, it’s certainly the farmers’ market (around 4 stallholders) held on Friday evenings from 4pm to 6.30pm.

            Producers of cheese, milk, bread, vegetables and honey gather in the chapel enclosure from February to November.

            It’s a great oportunity to stock up on good produce, but also to mingle with the regulars who come every week to share this convivial moment in a pleasant setting.
