Culture and history

The preserved complex of the Manoir du Vauclair includes an interior chapel dating from the 16th century. The chapel’s Gothic door has been protected as a historic monument since 1926. Historically, the Vauclair lordship was also dependent on the Châtellenie of Moncontour and held numerous properties in the surrounding municipalities.

A vivid testimony to the local history of milling is the historic Moulin à farine du Bas Drény. It has two preserved waterwheels, each driving a pair of millstones. In the Middle Ages, the mill was dependent on Moncontour Abbey; in 1848, it produced rye flour, oat flour and buckwheat flour.

The Croix de la Belle Place is a wayside cross from the 15th century in Plémy. The flat sculpture depicts a crowned Virgin with her child; on the opposite side, Christ is shown on the cross. The Grand Menhir, also called the Menhir de la Roche longue, also stands at Haut Dreny, on the edge of a path. It is 3.95 metres high.

The festivities for the Saint-Laurent-Pardon take place every year on the first or second Sunday in August in the chapel of the Saint-Laurent district in Plémy. They include a communal seated meal, Breton music and dancing, as well as short historical films about the village.
