Comment

The pardon of Notre-Dame de la Clarté in Perros-Guirec corresponds chronologically to two concomitant realities of the 15th century: the construction of the chapel and the establishment, as throughout Brittany, of a religious ceremony commonly known as "pardon". From the 15th century onwards, Breton nobility began building churches. Pilgrims gathered in droves to be forgiven for their sins. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapelle_Notre-Dame-de-la-Clart%C3%A9_de_Perros-Guirec
