Internal well, Cathedral Saint-Samson, Dol-de-Bretagne
Square stone-lined interior well, excavated in November 1996, in the Chapelle du Crucifix, linked to a second external well by an underground conduit and fed from the same water source, at the Cathedral Saint-Samson, begun in the 13th century on the site of an older church and completed in the 18th century, in Dol-de-Bretagne, Brittany, France. The linking of 2 indoor and outdoor wells is unique in France. The cathedral is dedicated to one of the founding saints of Brittany and until 1801 was the seat of the archbishopric of Dol.
