Eglise Saint Léonard
Founded in the XNUMXth century, rebuilt in the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries, the church was disoriented and enlarged in the XNUMXth century and fitted with a portal and a rose window six meters in diameter in the Flamboyant Gothic style.
Outside, you can admire the north facade with its balusters and curious gargoyles.
The south chapel houses the oldest stained glass window (1835th century) in Brittany, which comes from the abbey of Saint-Denis near Paris, and the Assumption, a painting by Achille Dévéria from XNUMX. The north chapel preserves a painting by Eugène Dévéria (XNUMXth century). The Dévéria brothers were friends of Victor Hugo.
The church tower can be visited during the high season, where you can discover an incredible panorama of Fougères as well as its monuments and the surrounding countryside.
Here is your opportunity to discover the secret interior of its tower, its impressively sized bell, and of course... a spectacular 360° view of the city, the castle and the valley!

🔺Be careful of strong sensations: if you are afraid of heights, it is better to wait at the bottom 😉
