Lycée Laennec

Lycée Laennec is a secondary school in Pont-l'Abbé with multiple buildings for teaching, residential accommodations, and sports facilities spread across its campus. The institution offers general education, technological, and vocational training paths with options for advanced qualifications such as BTS in Tourism and hospitality management.

The school was founded in 1929 as a secondary institution and served as German military quarters during World War II, requiring students to hold classes elsewhere during the occupation. After liberation, it was rebuilt and developed into a major educational center for the region.

The institution provides education in multiple languages including English, German, Spanish, and Italian, with dedicated European sections for international studies.

The campus is accessible by public transportation and has adequate parking for visitors and staff. It is advisable to contact the school office in advance if you wish to visit the grounds, as it remains an active educational facility.

The school has developed specialized programs for elite athletes since the early 2000s with a particular focus on surfing training. This approach takes advantage of the proximity to Brittany's coast and attracts athletes with surfing talent from the region.
