Travelling to Vannes

Travel to Vannes

In the south of Brittany sits Vannes, an ancient town which during the ninth century was the capital of Brittany: Rennes then took over this duty when Brittany became part of France in 1532. A port town on the Gulf of Morbihan, Vannes is a historic and lively town with naturally beautiful surroundings.
1,500 years of military history have marked the town over the centuries. The ramparts date from the third century when the Romans began fortifying the city, and in the 13th century it was the Duke of Brittany, Jean IV who extended the fortifications.
