Many times in this lovely town of Arzon in the Rhuys peninsula and several posts on it but again stop by today again and here are new pictures. I have written before on the church, but worth the detour again, me think. Therefore, here is my take on the Church Notre Dame de l’Assomption of Arzon, part III !!!  Hope you enjoy the post as I.

The Church Notre Dame de l’Assomption is right in City center surrounded by nice shops/restos. The parish church of Arzon was completely remodeled in the 19C, but the site is, in fact, much older. As early as 836 there is evidence of the presence of a place of worship in the town of Arzon in Locmaria in the same place as today.

The Church Notre-Dame de l’Assomption was restored in 1815. In 1848-1849, the bell tower was built (consolidated in 1890) and the nave was lengthened. The blessing of the two bells took place on June 5, 1855. It has been restored several times: the sanctuary (in 1880), the vault (in 1920). A complete renovation of the interior of the church took place in 1951.

Plenty of pictures but since I have taken new ones short on the text and more on the pictures, All worth it a visit is worth the detour, me think.
