Have you ever wondered why Breton place names like Trémeur, Hengoat or Langolen look so different from French ones, yet so similar to Welsh and Cornish names such as Tremawr, Hengoed or Llangollen?
Quimper Vannes takes us on a journey of discovery to find out why.
Exploring the origins of over a thousand place names in Brittany, Quimper Vannes uncovers the story of the Celtic migrants who came here from Britain in the fifth century and the language, myths and saints they brought with them.
Fascinating and well researched, Quimper Vannes reveals deep Celtic connections with Wales and Cornwall and lists hundreds of matching place names and saints across the three regions.
Geoff Ells is the author of Colombo-Jumbo: The Origin of Colombo's Street Names and creator of Place Names Wallah, the popular website exploring the place names of India and Sri Lanka. He has lived in Brittany for fourteen years.
