The medieval hamlet of Blavet took the name of Port-Louis when a citadel was built on the site under Louis XIII, king of France (reigned 1610–43). In 1664 Louis XIV (reigned 1643–1715) authorized a merchant company to settle there; and the town was named L’Orient in reference to the Eastern countries with which it traded. The town prospered and was further enlarged when another major trading company settled there in 1719. After France lost its possessions in India, commerce declined. Louis XVI (reigned 1774–92) bought the port and established a royal arsenal there.
Lorient developed as a fishing port and naval base, but the importance of both these activities has declined. Local industries include mechanical and electrical engineering, food processing, and the manufacture of electronics. The town is also a commercial and administrative centre and the site of the University of Southern Brittany. Tourism is increasingly important, with the town’s yachting harbour especially popular. Pop. (1999) 59,189; (2014 est.) 57,662.
