Economy

Châteaulin's economy is based on food processing (salmon and poultry) and, to an ever-greater extent, tourism. The Gendarmerie school on the outskirts of the town provides for a large number of families and the many recruits passing through the school provide the economic backbone of the town's night-life. The cake shop Histoire de Macaron is famous for its tasty and wide range of macaroons as well as the Java, created in 1907 by Mister Le Meur, which is a legend in the town.
