many evoke the French revolution against the king, but here in Auray, the royal and catholic army of Gen Cadoudal, battle the revolutionaires tocome back, even after the Republican revolutionary victory.
The Chouans fought from 1789 to 1806, when Gen Cadoudal was beheaded by Napoleon I on a complot attempt. Gen Cadoudal is from Auray and led the army against the revolution. He is a hero in this part of the woods

nice church, on a hamlet next to Auray,call Brech. very easy to go by bus no 5 morbihan from the Auray train station.
The curiosity of this church is the 24 corinthians reliefs on the ceilings carved into the arcades of the nave.
The info is in French, but need help let me know.

nice architecture and representing nowdays many countries honoring them by posting their plaque in the face of the building. This is the city govt of my town, for all those important citizen papers.

The building was first thought of in 1742 , and was finally completed in 1782.
