The Penzé is a small coastal river of Léon, in Finistère, which takes its name from a locality, a gap located at the bottom of its aber, the village of Penzé. Seat of a seigniory established in the 13th century on a vast territory located west of the bay of Morlaix, the village became between the 15th century and the 20th century the most populated between Morlaix and Saint Pol. If it is by default set up as a parish in 1947, it is still administratively shared between the municipalities of Plouenan and Taulé.
