The arrondissement of Brest was created in 1800.[4] At the January 2017 reorganisation of the arrondissements of Finistère, it lost one commune to the arrondissement of Morlaix.[5]

  1. Brest-Bellevue
  2. Brest-Cavale-Blanche-Bohars-Guilers
  3. Brest-Centre
  4. Brest-Kerichen
  5. Brest-Lambezellec
  6. Brest-L'Hermitage-Gouesnou
  7. Brest-Plouzané
  8. Brest-Recouvrance
  9. Brest-Saint-Marc
  10. Brest-Saint-Pierre
  11. Daoulas
  12. Guipavas
  13. Landerneau
  14. Lannilis
  15. Lesneven
