Rennes, the capital of Brittany, is known for its half-timbered old town and lively student energy. Its strong Breton identity, busy Marché des Lices and modern cultural scene give the city a character that feels both historic and current.
Angers is known for its medieval castle and the Apocalypse Tapestry, yet feels youthful and easy-going. Its old centre, riverside setting and ties to Anjou wine give the city a distinctly Loire character.
La Roche-sur-Yon is a Napoleonic planned town in the Vendée, known for its orderly streets and Place Napoléon. It has a practical, relaxed feel, with civic architecture, museums and an easy-going town centre.
Le Mans is best known for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but its character is shaped just as much by the old Cité Plantagenêt. Roman walls and timbered streets give this western French city a distinctly historic feel.
