In 1947, the Côte de Mûr-de-Bretagne served as a launchpad in the middle of a 139-kilometre stage between Vannes and Saint-Brieuc. However, the renown of the “Breton Alpe d’Huez” really stems from the four finishes that took place at this summit across ten years. On the first encounter in 2011, Cadel Evans and Alberto Contador went head to head, with Australia winning the day. In 2021, the double ascent of Mûr-de-Bretagne was the setting for a show of strength by Mathieu van der Poel, who won the stage and took the Yellow Jersey for good measure.
