The Halles or covered market of Guerlédan !

Posted in Bretagne, Food and Wine, France

 I like to tell you about the new town of Guerlédan, but not let them fool you the best here is in the old now part of the new, this is Mur de Bretagne with a lot history of my Bretagne.   Guerlédan is a town in the Côtes-d’Armor Dept 22 of my lovely region of Bretagne, and in my belle France. The town was born from the consolidation of the towns of Mur-de-Bretagne (see post) and Saint-Guen, which became delegated towns in January 2017. Its admintrative base is still at Mur-de-Bretagne. Again, I like to tell you with new pictures on the Halles or covered market of Guerlédan, Hope you enjoy it as I.

Built in 2016, the Halles or covered market on rue de l’Église have energized the city center of Guerlédan, Every Friday, from 16h, the halles come alive with a small food market which brings together a dozen traders in winter and around thirty street vendors, whose stalls overflow into the streets around the church.  Today, local associations make it a place for reunions such as the Celtic circle which organized its 24 hours of potato pancakes there, the Guerlédan-Sarria (Lugo province of Galicia) twinning committee for welcoming the Spanish or even the town for the festival of St. Patrick’s Day.

The Halles or covered market, inaugurated in June 2019, were renamed under the name of Hervé Le Lu. He was mayor of the former town Mûr-de-Bretagne from 2014 to 2016, then mayor of the new town of Guerlédan from 2017 until his death on June 24, 2022.

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
