I am taking you back to the north of my quant beautiful Dinan; located in the Côtes d’Armor dept 22 of my lovely region of Bretagne,and in my belle France, It is an area worth seeing indeed, and one reason is very popular to visitors of Brittany. As said, have written several posts on Dinan, but this time will tell you more of one monument that needs special attention for a visit. Therefore, here is my take on the Church Saint Malo of Dinan ,part II !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I,
The Church of Saint-Malo is from the 15C. It is representative of the flamboyant Gothic in Brittany. The Church dimensions are 76.50 meters long by 44.10 meters wide. It is quite imposing size, has a small steeple 40 meters, which is in fact only a four-pans roof with some small giblets. Originally, the church had to have a granite arrow, of which we can see the bases from each angle of the roof. It should have been consistent, given the size of the four pillars of the transept, each having a diameter of three meters.
There you go folks, as you have read my previous posts on Dinan, the sights are endless, the beauty is out of this world,and I encourage you to come over and see it first hand. Lots of history, architecture here. Again, hope you enjoy this post on the Church Saint Malo of Dinan, part II !!! as I.
And remember, happy travels, good health, and many cheers to all !!!
I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world.
My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting.
Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers
