    The name of Le Saint in Morbihan refers to Saint-Guénolé, founder of Landévennec Abbey in Finistère.

They remained there until the 17th century. In the village of Le Saint, we notice the town hall whose facade and gable were built with stones from the Saint-Adrien de Bouthiry chapel which fell into ruin at the beginning of the 20th century. Pleasant hiking trails crisscrossing Le Saint allow you to discover its architectural heritage such as the pretty Saint-Samuel fountain. The Saint is now labeled "a flower".
