From 1753 to 1997, Landerneau was the birthplace of 34 famous people

Aude Biannic (French cyclist) is the best known by our measure: 16 Wikipedia and sister-site articles in different languages. Next come Perrig Quéméneur and Romain Thomas.

34 people born in Landerneau have a French Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace (and an English one that agrees, when there is one). Wikidata places 54 people here; the rest aren’t listed because an article names somewhere else or no town, or a check couldn’t be completed.

Among its famous people, writers and artists: 11 of the 34. That is 32% of the town’s list, against 25% across French towns.

Louis Julien de Roujoux, born in 1753. The youngest on the list was born in 1997.

People whose Wikidata birthplace is Landerneau itself, matched by its INSEE code (a commune merged into it counts when the dates allow), whose French Wikipedia article agrees, and their English article too when they have one. A hospital or neighbourhood recorded without its commune isn’t matched. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a hospital, a neighbourhood or a wider area, another commune, or missing, or their articles may not name a birthplace. We only list people the sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
