Lorient

Lorient is a town and port located in the Morbihan department of Brittany in northwestern France, at the confluence of the Scorff and Blavet rivers. It is a charming city rich in history — in 1664, Louis XIV established a shipyard here, and the French East India Company also set up operations in the same year.

Lorient is a vibrant city with a busy port, modern entertainment facilities, expansive sandy beaches, a wide range of water and outdoor activities, and shopping areas offering a variety of brand-name goods. The Musée de la Compagnie des Indes (East India Company Museum), the Submarine Museum, and several other museums are ideal places to explore Lorient’s history and shipbuilding heritage. In addition, you can savor authentic seafood cuisine and immerse yourself in local culture at traditional markets.
