The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Ancienne église tréviale de Plouguernevez. L'édifice actuel est de plan rectangulaire, et comprend une chapelle au sud du choeur. Des fenestrages du 14e siècle réemployés dans la nef et au pignon de la chapelle, laissent supposer qu'un édifice existait déjà au 14e siècle, sans doute endommagé par la guerre de succession du duché. Au début du 15e siècle, reconstruction de l'édifice. Au 19e siècle, ajout d'une sacristie au nord. Le porche de la tour s'orne d'une voûte à liernes tardive, décorée de la colombe du Saint-Esprit. Elle date du 18e siècle, de même que le pignon adjacent. La flèche qui la surmontait était datée de 1720, mais s'est écroulée en 1877.

Former parish church of Plouguernevez. The present building is of rectangular plan, and comprises a chapel to the south of the choir. Fenestration of the 14th century reused in the nave and at the gable of the chapel suggests that a building already existed in the 14th century, probably damaged by the war of succession of the duchy. In the early 15th century, reconstruction of the building. In the 19th century, addition of a sacristy to the north. The porch of the tower is adorned with a late lierne vault, decorated with the dove of the Holy Spirit. It dates from the 18th century, as does the adjacent gable. The spire which surmounted it was dated 1720, but collapsed in 1877.
