Itinerary

1. Porte Prison

The medieval gate of the old perimeter wall that you see opening in front of you dates from the 13th century. It was built on the site of the first Gallo-Roman enclosure.

2. Eglise Saint-Patern

You arrive in the oldest district of Vannes. Where the Romans decided it was good to live and laid down their luggage in the 1st century BCE.

3. Préfecture

This imposing U-shaped building is the Morbihan prefecture. It was built on a former convent and was inaugurated in 1865. Here, it is its pediment that interests us, because it tells the ancestral history of Vannes.

4. Remparts de Vannes

We arrive on the outer part of the ramparts bordered by their beautiful gardens. From here, you have an excellent vantage point to make a beautiful souvenir photo of the city of Vannes well sheltered behind its walls.

5. Jardin des Remparts

The garden that you will pass through now, in addition to being a beautiful idea to highlight the ramparts, has become a must during a visit to Vannes

6. Tour du Connetable

The medieval tower, which you see in front of you, is the tower of the constable. It dates back to the first half of the 15th century, and although it was also a defensive tower, it was mainly used as housing for Constable Arthur de Richemont.

7. Les Lavoirs de la Garenne

Another point of interest in the heart of the garden, the washhouses of the Garenne. It is an old public wash house supplied by the Marle.

8. Chateau de l'Hermine

You now have in front of you the one called the Château de l’ermine. This beautiful 18th century Inn has nothing to do with the original Château de l’Hermine.

9. Port de Vannes

Taking a tour on the port of Plaisance of Vannes, a stone's throw from the historic center, is a real pleasure. Left bank as right bank are full of charm and offer you clear docks, framed by small shops, bars and restaurants.

10. Porte Saint-Vincent

Here you are in Gambetta Square. Behind you the Port sur la Marle and in front of you, a beautiful hemicycle of 18th century buildings framing the Porte Saint Vincent.

11. Place des Lices

This square, which emerges along the street, is the square of the lice. One of the main public squares of Vannes.

12. Vannes et sa Femme

At the corner of the Rue du Blessed-Pierre-René-Rogue and Rue de Noé, is this strange sculpture of Vannes and his wife! These are two granite busts that represent a man and a woman with round and cheerful faces.

13. Vannes

The Rue des Halles you just walked up and the Rue Saint-Salomon, which you are now entering, are two typical streets in the heart of the medieval city.

14. Hôtel de Limur - CIAP Limur

The beautiful white building you are passing now is the Inn of Limur. In 1685, the construction of the Inn of the Douve began.

15. Place Maurice Marchais

If the building tells you anything, it’s normal, it’s the smaller copy of the Paris City Hall! The Vannes City Inn was built between 1881 and 1886.

16. Place Henri IV

The Place Henri IV you have just reached is a charming village-like square lined with beautiful half-timbered houses. Most of the houses in the square are classified as historic monuments.

17. Cathedrale Saint Pierre

St. Peter’s Cathedral is one of those buildings that have gone through the centuries drawing on each period, a bit of the style of the time. In 919, the Norman invasions destroyed the first wooden church in Vannes.

18. Rue Saint-Guenhaël

You arrive on St. Gwenaël Street, a pretty little cobblestone street along the cathedral. This alley of medieval origin, with its irregular layout, was first called the Rue de la paix and then the Rue du four duduc, which was installed at number 13.
