Another amazing French Cathedral in yet another beautiful setting being Dol De Bretagne itself . I thoroughly enjoyed my day visiting . This particular Cathedral is dedicated to one Saint Samson . Outside you will see the Maen Vag a stone trough which is a replica of the one Samson is said to have sailed across the channel in . Now that is cool . The unfinished tower at the front is said to have been damaged by the Devil himself when he hurled the Bretagne Menhir at the building !!! (Between you and me funds to build it ran out ) I prefer the first tale myself . In the center of the town you will be directed by a statue of Samson I believe pointing you in the direction of truth and light and this...

A stunning cathedral that breathes the story of history and of Saint Samson, the founder of Brittany. We were lucky—during our visit, a local musician was playing the bagpipes, making the experience not only visually impressive but also musically unforgettable. The only downside was that we hadn’t planned the visit in advance, so we didn’t manage to find Saint Samson’s tomb....

J'ai été profondément marqué par ma visite de la cathédrale Saint-Samson à Dol-de-Bretagne. C'est un édifice qui impose le respect par son histoire et sa beauté brute, un véritable trésor du patrimoine breton. . De l'extérieur, elle a des allures de forteresse, presque austère, mais cela lui donne un caractère unique. On sent immédiatement le poids des siècles en la contemplant et on a hâte de découvrir ce qu'elle renferme. . L'intérieur est une magnifique surprise. La sobriété des lignes gothiques met en valeur des trésors insoupçonnés comme les stalles en chêne, d'une finesse incroyable, ou la grande verrière du chœur qui baigne l'édifice d'une lumière colorée et apaisante. Le tombeau de Thomas James est également une pièce maîtresse à ne pas manquer. . J'ai trouvé l'histoire du double puits, à la fois intérieur et extérieur, tout à fait fascinante. C'est une particularité qui ajoute une touche de mystère à la visite. . Je recommande vivement de prendre le temps de s'arrêter pour explorer ce lieu chargé d'histoire et de spiritualité. Une visite qui ne laisse pas...

Die Kathedrale Saint-Samson in Dol-de-Bretagne ist ein echtes Juwel der bretonischen Gotik und zählt zu den eindrucksvollsten Sakralbauten der Region. Schon beim Betreten spürt man die jahrhundertealte Geschichte, die in jedem Stein dieser Kathedrale steckt. Errichtet ab dem 13. Jahrhundert auf den Fundamenten einer früheren Kirche, war sie einst Bischofssitz und spielte eine bedeutende Rolle in der religiösen Geschichte der Bretagne. Der hohe, schlanke Innenraum mit seinem gewaltigen Gewölbe und den eleganten Spitzbögen vermittelt eine fast meditative Ruhe. Besonders faszinierend ist der Blick durch das Langhaus auf die farbenprächtigen Glasfenster – ein Spiel aus Licht und Farbe, das den Raum lebendig macht. Die Atmosphäre ist erhaben und gleichzeitig warm – kein Wunder, dass dieser Ort Pilger, Reisende und Fotografen gleichermaßen in seinen Bann zieht. Ein Besuch dieser Kathedrale ist wie eine Zeitreise. Wer sich für Geschichte, Architektur oder stille, kraftvolle Orte interessiert, wird hier definitiv etwas Besonderes finden. Fünf Sterne – ohne Frage.
