The Keringant Calvary has been listed as a Historic Monument since 1970. This calvary was probably erected in the 16th century and has a shortened shaft. The date 1691 carved on the base is linked to a later restoration.

A granite altar with a round, scooped shaft on a cubic base with two steps. The monolithic cross forms a compact block with small consoles carved into the mass on which rest geminated figures. On the west side: Virgin of Pity (whose bust is missing) framed by Magdalene and Saint John. On the east side: Christ on the Cross framed by the Virgin Mary and Saint John. At the corners of the plinth, figures sculpted in high relief probably represent the apostles. On the east side of the plinth, the coat of arms or the mark of the person who commissioned the calvary was probably painted in the carved square in reserve, which is now empty.

The chapel is open during the season. Information is available from the Mairie.
