Pléneuf-Val-André

Pléneuf-Val-André is a coastal commune in Brittany that stretches along the Atlantic coast, mixing residential areas, beaches, and green spaces. The territory includes both flat coastal sections and gently rolling inland areas.

The area developed into a coastal resort in the 19th century when a naval officer built a manor house there. This building shaped Val-André's character and attracted settlers and visitors to the region.

The place name combines two historically separate settlements that merged into one community. Visitors can notice how this union shaped the town, with different areas maintaining their own character and local identity.

The commune lies east of Saint-Brieuc and offers direct access to beaches and coastal paths. Visitors should expect varying terrain levels, though access to most areas is relatively straightforward.

A well-known French actress took her stage name from this location and was buried here. This connection links the commune to French cinema history in an unexpected way.
