Let yourself fall under the charms of this
medieval city with its fortified castle
built upon a rocky outcrop. Walk through
the narrow streets of the walled city
and admire the elegant slate-roofed buildings
with their coloured half-timber frames.
Discover the Notre-Dame church, a veritable
jewel
of flamboyant gothic art in Upper Brittany.
All of these treasures display the wealth
of the overseas merchants who made the city
prosper during the 15th and 16th centuries.
Surrounded by gentle nature and rolling
landscape, set off to discover the history
of this region where the famous 17th century
letter writer Madame de Sévigné
sojourned. Enjoy the museums, lakes, rivers
and forests. Savour the small friendly inns
and gourmet restaurants.
