Concarneau (29900) is a town of about 20,000 inhabitants, known worldwide for its Ville Close, a fortified medieval town built on an islet connected to the city by two footbridges. This former stronghold, whose ramparts mainly date from the 14th–15th centuries and were reinforced by Vauban in the 17th century, is one of the most visited sites in Brittany.
