32/36.- Lampaul-Guimiliau, Church Interior

Menu

But to see the Breton churches in all their glory, it is necessary to take a look inside, too, as the wealth of the parishes was displayed not only in the architecture, but also in the church furniture. In the Lampaul-Guimiliau church, the supporting beams are carved with all kinds of figures. The main beam is painted and supports another crucifixion scene. Note that in this maritime province, the wooden vaults of the nave look very much like overturned ships. "Nave", mind you, means "ship".
