Villesèque: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Culture

The Church of Saint Michael in Villesèque features a carved wooden high altarpiece. Its complex symbolic imagery is characteristic of the Grand Siècle. The enclosed grounds of the church also contain a permanent exhibition on the built heritage of the municipality, which is open to the public.

In Trébaïx, the Church of Saint Mary Magdalene was completely rebuilt at the end of the 15th or beginning of the 16th century. Its single-nave layout opens onto two side chapels; the southern chapel bears the coat of arms of the Order of Malta.

The Tour de Trébaïx also reflects the eventful history of the place: it was initially a Templar commandery and later a commandery of the Hospitallers of Saint John of Jerusalem. All that remains is a large rectangular tower flanked by a polygonal stair tower. The architectural and ornamental programme of the house in Trébaïx was completed in its entirety during the final years of the 13th century or the first years of the 14th century, before 1307.
