Travel to Rennes

In the heart of the land of King Arthur and the knights of the round table, Rennes has a long and fascinating history. As well as its historic city centre with traditional, colourful timber-framed houses, Rennes is a vibrant university city. With around 60,000 students, Rennes is particularly well-known for its nightlife.

As capital of Brittany, which was separate from the rest of France until 1534, the city saw the coronation of the Dukes of Brittany, at the Saint-Pierre Cathedral in Rennes.
