Follow the course of the Aven maritime to its mouth. Discover the meanders of the river which widens little by little: the site of Hénan with the tide mill, the house of the miller, the castle of Hénan, the chapels of Trémor and Sainte-Marguerite, the small ports of Kerdruc and Rosbraz...
From 1865, a cosmopolitan colony of artists settled and painted in Pont-Aven. But it is only after 1886 that Gauguin, Bernard and Sérusier pass Pont-Aven to posterity by sparking new pictorial ideas. The movement, now known worldwide under the term "School of Pont-Aven", is considered the basis of modern art.
The adventure is discovered at the Museum of Fine Arts, which reopened its doors in March 2016 after a complete renovation. Classified as a "Musée de France", it has 850 works of art unveiled in the permanent exhibition and throughout the temporary exhibitions.
