What is a Commune?
In France, a "commune" is like a local government area. It's the smallest division of land for local government. Think of it as a town or a village with its own local council and mayor. Plouha is one of many communes that make up the country of France.
Where is Plouha?
Plouha is situated in the northwest of France, right on the coast of the English Channel. This area, Brittany, is famous for its stunning cliffs, sandy beaches, and ancient history. The Côtes-d'Armor department, where Plouha is located, means "coasts of the sea" in French, which perfectly describes its seaside location.
Sister Cities
Plouha has special friendships with towns in other countries. These are called "sister cities" or "twinned towns." This means they share cultural exchanges and visits, helping people from different places learn about each other.
Plouha is twinned with:
Killorglin, a town in Ireland. This friendship started in 1999.
Palas de Rei, a town in Spain. This partnership began in 2003.
These partnerships help people from Plouha, Killorglin, and Palas de Rei understand different cultures and build international friendships.
