Cell towers in Paimpol (Côtes-d'Armor)

Masts stand at Z.a. de Guerland, La Lande Blanche, rue du Marais, Rue Pierre Mendes France, La Lande Colas and Rue de Bel Air.

The tallest structure is a 70 m pylon at La Lande Blanche. The median is 27 m, slightly below the Côtes-d'Armor median of 34 m.

ANFR has approved one new site that is not live yet, plus additions on 2 existing masts. New: Free Mobile (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at 27 Rue Raymond Pellier. 1 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitter is listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

Every mast here is owned by a tower company rather than by a carrier. Mix: Totem (3), On Tower France (2) and TDF (1).

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Orange on 3 of its 4 masts and Free Mobile on 2 of its 3 masts.

Systems from 2009 are still on the register. Free Mobile opened 5G here in March 2021; SFR followed in April 2022, Bouygues Telecom followed in April 2022. 2017 was the busiest year, with 8 new systems, most of them 4G.

Nearby, Plourivo (4.1 km to the south-west) has a higher 5G share (100%).

Colocation covers 3 supports.

Among the 30 Côtes-d'Armor towns with at least five masts, Paimpol ranks 7th by mast count. With 7 masts for 7,341 residents, or 10 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (13).

Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
