Brest, a city with a strong identity

Welcome to Brest, the land of pancakes and pancakes, where sweet butter does not exist and where olive oil is banned. Labeled City of Art and History, Brest is also a city of rich cultural activities and numerous innovations. It is in this small town in Finistère that UXCO has chosen to put down its suitcases, in the heart of the Capucins district, near the tram line A.

LIFE IN BREST 

Cut in two by the Penfeld, Brest is a port city known for its rich maritime past, which you can discover at the National Maritime Museum, and its naval base. Partly destroyed after the bombings of 1944, Brest is a dynamic city that has been able to reinvent itself. Markets, beaches, greenery, festivals, but also and above all forts, castles, and museums, are part of the many places and activities that you can discover. Today, Brest is also the place where innovative projects are developed. For example, the Technopôle Brest-Iroise sees entrepreneurs with numerous projects on a daily basis. The Ateliers des Capucins site is also one of the symbols of Brest innovation. Completely rehabilitated, it is now dedicated to leisure, culture, housing and tourism. And yes, Brest is not just rain 360 days a year! Moreover, it is false, it is 358… It is also a city where the baker, the taxi, the fisherman and the market gardener rub shoulders on a daily basis and will become the best friends of future residents. In other words, Brest is a warm city with a friendly atmosphere, which will welcome every student who puts down their bags there.
