Lanmeur (French pronunciation: [lɑ̃mœʁ]; Breton: Lanneur) is a commune in the Finistère department of Brittany in north-western France.[3]
A hamlet in the commune called Kerouac (Breton: Kervoac'h) has been established as the source of the name of the American writer Jack Kerouac.[4] A street in Lanmeur has been named rue Jack Kerouac,[5] and in March 2010 a first Jack Kerouac Festival took place in the commune.[6]
