From Wikipedia

A pardon (Breton: pardoniñ) is a typically Breton form of pilgrimage and one of the most traditional demonstrations of popular Catholicism in Brittany. Of very ancient origin, probably dating back to the conversion of the country by the Celtic monks, it is comparable to the pattern days of pre-famine Ireland. A pardon is a penitential ceremony. A pardon occurs on the feast of the patron saint of a church or chapel, at which an indulgence is granted, hence the use of the word "pardon". Pardons only occur in the traditionally Breton language speaking Western part of Brittany. They do not extend further east than Guingamp.
