The Chapelle du Plas-Kaër was inaugurated in 1874 on the site of an older chapel built by the Knights Templar in the 15th century, and is shaped like a Neo-Gothic Latin cross. The Chapelle Saint-André houses a Merovingian granite sarcophagus, described as one of the oldest monuments in the Morbihan département.
