Église Saint-Tudy de Loctudy

About

Saint Tudy Church is a Romanesque church located in Loctudy, port of Bigouden Country, France. It is dedicated to Saint Tudy, a monk with a rather blurred geographical and historical background. It is one of the few Romanesque churches in Brittany to have reached us with, among others, the church of Locmaria in Quimper, the abbey of Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé and the church of Saint-Pierre de Fouesnant. Its restoration — in two parts during the 19th century — was followed by Prosper Mérimée and Jean-Baptiste Lassus, and led by Joseph Bigot and Paul Gout, which may indicate a certain architectural importance of the building.
