History

The arrondissement of Châteaulin was created in 1800.[3] At the January 2017 reorganisation of the arrondissements of Finistère, it lost three communes to the arrondissement of Quimper.[4]

  1. Carhaix-Plouguer
  2. Châteaulin
  3. Châteauneuf-du-Faou
  4. Crozon
  5. Le Faou
  6. Huelgoat
  7. Pleyben

gollark: This is why I like to use "anti-user design", where I consider what users might want then do the opposite of it because they are wrong.
gollark: > Proving once again that Users=lusersI agree completely.
gollark: It's sentient, remember‽
