Pabu: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

A 2.7 km-long hiking trail in Pabu begins in the town centre, passes an artificial pond and a weir, and reaches the banks of the Trieux via the Chemin de Munehorre.

Culture and History

The Church of Saint-Tugdual dates from the 18th century and can be visited independently during the season. The Chapel of Saint-Loup was built in 1870 and dedicated to the protection of Saint Loup, the patron saint of shepherds. Its vault is covered with paintings by the local artist Bernard Le Quellec; visits are possible by request through the Lycée secretariat.

Pottery is also part of Pabu’s history: potters in Kerhré (La Poterie) and Kerez have been mentioned since the 15th century. The pottery house in Kerez, dated 1727, was restored to illustrate the life and work of Pabu’s potters and recreate the atmosphere of the second half of the 19th century. A short film is also shown during a visit to the Maison des Potiers, tracing the history of Pabu’s potters from the Gallo-Roman period to the present day.

The Aqueduct of Guingamp is located within the territory of Pabu; its four arches were built between 1735 and 1743. The small Pabu Photography Museum is located in the entrance area of the town hall. Its collection includes, among other things, a candle-powered projection lantern and a Leica camera from 1930. The Photography Museum is open during the town hall’s opening hours.
