Visit Rennes
Rennes, a city of history
Following the great fire in Rennes which devastated the town in 1720, Jacques Gabriel, architect to King Louis XV, carried out an incredible rebuilding of the town. The squares of City Hall and Parliament remain its symbols.
The variety of buildings offers the city of Rennes a colourful and dynamic atmosphere. This is revealed as you visit the countless buildings dating from Gallo-Roman times to the present day. In addition, the Breton city houses a sublime center-bourg unfortunately abandoned by tourists, because little known. This is unfortunate since they cannot admire the old centre with its half-timbered houses and medieval ruins.
The visit of Rennes also passes through the tour of museums and other art galleries.
