Coulogne’s famous people span 150 years: 3 births from 1807 to 1957

Bernard Pruvost (French actor) is the best known by our measure: 1 Wikipedia and sister-site articles in different languages. Next come Fernand Devin and Louis Dutertre.

3 people born in Coulogne have a French Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace (and an English one that agrees, when there is one).

Among its famous people, soldiers and sailors: 2 of the 3. That is 67% of the town’s list, against 4% across French towns.

Louis Dutertre, born in 1807. The youngest on the list was born in 1957.

People whose Wikidata birthplace is Coulogne 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.
