About
Every Monday morning, Lesneven hosts the biggest market on the Côte des Légendes. More than 200 traders and producers set up around Place du Général-Le-Flô, in the heart of the town. Lesneven is the small capital of the Léon on the Côte des Légendes side, between Brest and the sea. Its Monday market is an institution that draws the whole of north Finistère. Starting the week with a market of this size is rare: a chance to stock up on fresh produce before the other markets in the area. After the market, you can visit the Musée du Léon in Lesneven, about 100 m away, and the Château de Kerjean in Saint-Vougay, about 18 minutes by car (15 km).
