Landerneau, Bretagne guide de voyage

Landerneau is in the Finistère department of western Bretagne, in the Armorique region

Landerneau is quite a lively town, with plenty of shops and cafes to entertain you, and has managed very well to integrate the new with the old. in the centre of town there are lots of streets lined with ancient buildings to explore, and some interesting small statues set in niches in the walls.

There are a couple of interesting churches in the town, but the highlight for visitors is the 16th century Pont de Rohan (pictured above). There are now very few bridges remaining in Europe of this style, with the houses across the bridge still standing (the Florentian Ponte Vecchio is of course the most famous example).

Apparently there is an old saying in France "that's going to make a noise in Landerneau" meaning "word of that is getting to get out" - gossip is going to spread all over!
