Morlaix | Brittany | France 

With one foot in the Leon area and the other in Tregor, Morlaix nestles in an estuary enclosed by the foothills of the Monts d’Arrée mountains. This town, brimming with art and history, is lovely to look at, whether from below the tiered storeys of its famous half-timbered houses, or from the heights of its viaduct.
Morlaix in Brittany is a medieval town famous for its 19th century viaduct, charming 16th century half-timber houses and the beautiful Bay of Morlaix.
During its wealthy heyday of the Middle Ages, Morlaix was the biggest port in Brittany and the town specialised in the production and trade of linen. In the old quarter of the town today you can walk the cobbled medieval streets with their overhanging timber-beamed houses looming over your path, their carved facades covered in a huge variety of different religious and secular sculptures.
The town is also well known for its street art ("graffiti"). Our video only covers a few of the artworks that can be found dotted around the town.
