context_page_description: The Pencran Parish close is located at Pencran in the arrondissement of Brest in Brittany in north-western France. The Notre-Dame church, the sacristy, the two calvaries, the ossuary and the surrounding wall are a listed historical monument since 1990. Records show that there has been a religious building in Pencran since the 14th century, and in 1353 there was mention of a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Until the French Revolution the parish of Ploudiry covered an area from Loc-Eguiner to Pencran, but it was in 1801 that Pencran became an independent parish.
context_section_description: On the grass on the north side of the church there is a statue of Mary Magdalene. She kneels and lifts her arms. Her head leans backwards and we can discern three tears running down her face. This statue has been attributed to Bastien Prigent.
