The chapel (1859-1861) was built by the architect Le Hagre as a replacement of the old Gothic church of the village of Loc-Péran (1553) who was demolished in 1859. The altar and retable, marble and drink, date 1863 and seem to be the work of the sculptor Le Brun. In the left niche, is held Jean and the eagle which is its emblem. In the right niche is held Paul and the sword which evokes his martyr. We find two wooden statues there of the XVIth century. The pavement, situated place Saint-Peter and adjoining to the new chapel of 1859, contains a gravestone (1578) an only vestige of the church of 1553.
