Holy Tribe (Le Faouët)
The Holy Kinship window in the St-Fiacre Catholic chapel in Le Faouët , a French commune in the Morbihan department in Brittany , was created in 1550. The leaded glass window was added to the list of architectural monuments in France in 1862 as Monument historique .
The window in the choir was created by an unknown workshop. It shows the Holy Kinship with Maria , her husband Josef and Maria's parents Anna and Joachim .
The year of manufacture 1550 and the year of renovation 1912 are written on the window.
