St. Govan’s Chapel - August 10, 2007
prev. « » next
This is one of the most picturesque 6th century hermits’ chapels in all of Britain. It is named after the hermit and saint who lived there now so many centuries ago, St. Govan. The chapel is located right on the cliffs of the spectacular Pembrokeshire National Park, near the small village of Bosherston. What they know of him is encrusted with legend, and its no longer possible to distinguish simple facts from fiction. The legends are pretty cool!

Wow, that’s really cool. I love seeing the old stone structures and buildings of Europe.

One of the funny things about the place was the fact that each time you take the path down to the chapel you count the steps and each time the total of steps change. There were three of us walking down to the chapel and we all had different totals for the number of steps. Maybe we just can’t count!
