From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see Recouvrance (disambiguation).
Recouvrance is the section of the city of Brest, France which lies on the right bank of the river Penfeld. It is a popularly and historically Breton quarter, in contrast to the largely Francophone quarter of Brest-même or Brest-proper on the left bank.
The lift bridge over the Penfeld was named after this neighbourhood, as was a schooner built in 1992 in the city.
