Plougonver is a beautiful commune. In the centre is the church around which are granite houses separated by roads forming a star-like pattern and leading off towards other communes.

In 2006, Plougonver started a new project : the building of a housing estate around the area where “La Maison où j’ai grandi” (The house where I grew up – work by the artist Claude Lévêque) is situated and which used to be a place for lonely people to come. In the near future, Plougonver will be involved in a tourist and cultural development project.

A small area in the centre of the village will be used as a play area for children and the Ménez Keresperz could also become a place of interest for the internationally known architect Didier FAUSTINO. This way Plougonver will be able to boast the talents of various artists while preserving its cultural heritage.

The Saint Pierre church dates back to the XVIth and XVIIth centuries and has a door which goes back to the Breton Renaissance. It boasts various interesting sculptures, a sculpted rostrum and lectern etc. Further on, the area where the Saint Tugdual chapel (XVIth century) is situated has been recently renovated : old underground fountains have been updated, a small wall rebuilt, trees planted, a batrachian pond put into place by the Forest and Countryside Discovery Centre…

Apart from these obvious sites, Plougonver is home to a number of crosses and ancient remains which you will be able to discover along the different trails through the countryside. Aware of keeping its natural environment intact, the commune wants to put in place a new way of protecting road verges and is part of a project for decorating the village with more flowers.

The commune is also equipped with two tennis courts, a sportsground, a public hall, a gymnasium, a library and two primary schools and various artisans, farmers etc live here, making Plougonver somewhere which is bound to become more lively and expand.
