Why a multimedia Atlas for tourism on Finistere?

Firstly, because Finistere is the only departement in Brittany to offer so much wealth to its visitors. Cliffs, creaks, beaches, ports and rocks that have been sculpted by the sea spread along approximately 500 km between Le Pouldu and Locquirec. Between these two ports one can discover many wild and exceptional landscapes; from the Tregor to the cote des Legendes, the Bigounden country to the Bay of Douarnenez, and the Island of Ouessant to the Island of Sein. Furthermore, for those seeking calm and serenity, a few kilometres away from the sea the centre of Finistere offers a mysterious world full of legends.

Because the Finistere is awash with historical treasures, this evidences a history of deep faith and prosperity. Hundreds of Chapels and fountains, thousands of calvaires, menhirs, dolmens, cloisters, and a unique tour of parish regions give it one of the richest historical and religious heritages in France.

Because the Finistere is a land of legends and traditions many artists (Breton or from elsewhere) have painted or written about the Finistere: Henri Quéffelec, Pierre Jackez Hélias, Paul Gauguin, to name just a few. They were seduced by so much wealth and colour. The Atlas touristique of the Finistere will allow you to comprehensively experience the approximately 300 communes of the departement and to discover, or re-discover, all of this wealth.
