Sant Tudeg.

Vallée des Saints.

Son existence semble prouver que l’arrivée des migrants en provenance des iles Britanniques ne se fit pas sans heurt avec les chefs Armoricains encore fidèles aux dieux Celtes.
Tudeg et plusieurs moines s’étaient réunis non loin d’un domaine appartenant à un seigneur local. Le seigneur arma ses troupes et attaqua les moines qu’il massacra. Tudeg périt avec eux.

La légende raconte que le Dieu Chrétien envoya un dragon pour venger les moines. Il ravagea toute la région. Il fallu l’intercession de saint Pol Aurélien pour vaincre le monstre.
Le meurtrier se convertit alors au christianisme et fonda un. Grand monastère à Daoulas….


His life seems to prove that the arrival of migrants from the British Isles did not go smoothly with the Armorican leaders still faithful to the Celtic gods.
Tudeg and several monks had gathered not far from a field belonging to a local lord. The lord armed his troops and attacked the monks, whom he massacred. Tudeg died with them.

According to the legend the Christian God sent a dragon to avenge the monks. The dragon ravaged the entire region. The intercession of Saint Pol Aurélien was necessary to defeat the monster.
The murderer then converted to Christianity and founded a large monastery in Daoulas (north Finistère)….

his apparent entreaties to calm down must not have worked...a fascinating tale, and sadly one of yet more intolerance in our troubled world...commendable angle on the sober statue..
