Life of John the Baptist (Le Faouët)
The window Life of John the Baptist in the Catholic Chapel of St-Fiacre in Le Faouët , a French commune in the Morbihan department in Brittany , was created in the mid-16th century. The leaded glass window was added to the list of architectural monuments in France in 1862 as Monument historique .
The window in the transept was created by an unknown workshop. It shows the life of John the Baptist .
In 1912 the window was restored by Marcel Delon in Paris.
In addition to the window Life of John the Baptist , four other windows from the Renaissance period have been preserved in the church (see navigation bar).
