A magnificent landscape on both sides!!!

Nice place to rest - opposite the monument to Charles de Gaulle.

A truly great statesman, we Germans owe him much! Here is the translation of his speech, his appeal: TO ALL FRENCH PEOPLE France has lost a battle! But France has not lost the war! The accidental rulers have capitulated, succumbed to panic, forgot their honor, and delivered the country into slavery. But nothing is lost! Nothing is lost, for this war is a world war. In the free world, tremendous forces have not yet surrendered. One day, these forces will destroy the enemy. On that day, France must share in the victory. Then it will regain its freedom and its greatness. That is my goal, my only goal! Therefore, I call on all French people, wherever they may be, to join me in action, in sacrifice, and in hope. Our fatherland is in mortal danger. Let us all fight to save it! LONG LIVE FRANCE!

Discovered on the way back from a mountain bike ride

Nice view of the bay and easy to drive as no cars can cross this small cycle and pedestrian bridge.

This cycle route is made up of: - the 16 kilometers of the Côte des Légendes Véloroute, which links Goulven to Le Drennec, - the seven kilometers of the part of the Véloroute des Abers which connects Le Drennec and Plabennec. From Lesneven and to Plabennec, it is largely based on the route of an old departmental railway which linked Goulven to Plabennec, where it joined that coming from Aber Wrac'h, and continued there. also to Brest (“potato train”). The part between the exit from Le Folgoët and the entrance to Plabennec is the most pleasant and bucolic, without significant slopes. Between Goulven and Lesneven, the route follows small roads, several sections of which have slopes of more than 12%.

Nestled in the picturesque backdrop of the Elorn and the port of Brest, the “Pont de Plougastel”, better known as “Pont Albert-Louppe”, rises into the sky. It served as the only connection across the river from 1930 to 1994, before the Iroise Bridge was added. Before this bridge dominated the landscape, people were solely dependent on ferry services. The majestic construction of the Pont Albert-Louppe stretches over 880 meters and towers 42 meters above sea level. What makes this bridge particularly remarkable are its three arches - with the largest of them holding the world record for concrete arch bridges at 186.4 meters. Nearby and in impressive contrast is the Iroise Bridge, built between 1991 and 1994, which crosses the Elorn between the towns of Relecq-Kerhuon and Plougastel. With a length of 800 meters and a span of 400 meters between its two pylons - which stand 83 meters above the deck - it was the bridge with the longest span in the world when it opened. It connects Brest with Quimper in Finistère and is reserved exclusively for car traffic. The closed Pont Albert-Louppe offers a privileged vantage point for pedestrians and photographers. From here you can not only capture the imposing Iroise Bridge in all its glory, but also enjoy a breathtaking view of the Elorn and the port of Brest. Among France's cable-stayed bridges, the Iroise Bridge takes third place, after the Pont de Normandie and the Pont de Saint-Nazaire, and ahead of the impressive Viaduc de Millau.

The Albert-Louppe bridge, first called the Plougastel bridge and still called the first Plougastel bridge, crosses the mouth of the Élorn in the harbor of Brest to connect the communes of Plougastel-Daoulas to Relecq-Kerhuon. It has been closed to cars since the construction of the new bridge. Access is therefore now reserved for pedestrians, bicycles, rollerblades, etc.
