Lannion is a large port town in the Cotes-d'Armor department of northern Brittany, around the estuary of the River Léguer.

It is a lively, modern town which generates much of its wealth by the important role it plays in the telecommunications research industry, and has an interesting historic centre.

Lannion is a spread out along the river Leguer. On one side is the magnificent 17th century Monastery of St Ann, on the other is the heart of the town.

Pick up a map from the tourist office. This suggests two walking tours which will ensure you see the main sites of Lannion.

The first walk takes you up the Escalier de Brelevenez to the church of Brelevenez at the top. The church is a lovely 12th century Templar church but really it is the walk up the steps themselves (all 140 of them) that is the highlight. On one side of the steps is a street of delightful slate rooved cottages, each brimming over with charm and flowers. On the other side there are views over the town.

Back down in the town the second route takes you to some lovely medieval buildings based around the Place du Général-Leclerc and the Rue des Chapeliers and the church of St-Jean-du-Baly. There are many 15th and 16th century half-timbered houses to discover as you explore the narrow streets, interspersed with small open plazas and outdoor cafes. Pay attention to the fronts of these ancient houses - some have interesting carvings of faces and dragons in the wood.

The market in Lannion is held on Thursday.
