| Rennes - "Capital" of Brittany |
| It takes about 35 minutes by car to go to Rennes, a very busy industriel and university town at the junction of the river Ille and the river Vilaine. From an architectural point of view more a french town than a mediaeval Breton one, because it was rebuilt after a big fire in 1720, corresponding to the rules of town construction of the 18 th century. |
| Rich classic buildings in the center (House of Parliament of Bretagne, St. Peter Cathedral, Townhall ...) and a very nice old town with numerous wooden frame houses - some have six levels ! |
