What to visit in Rennes?

Rennes offers a wide range of green spaces for walkers, with 868 hectares, such as the Oberthür park with its beautiful pond, or the Gayeulles leisure centre in the northeast of the city. But its cultural appeal is no less important: just under a hundred buildings are historic monuments, and the city's religious heritage is particularly rich, with the Cathedral of Saint Peter, its classical façade and neoclassical interior, the Jacobins convent on Place Sainte-Anne, or the flamboyant Gothic style Saint-Germain church. You can also admire the many halls built in the 19th century, several mills, and especially the very beautiful half-timbered houses in the Centre district, or others with their colourful or sculpted facades.
Rennes also offers several cultural sites, such as the Théâtre National de Bretagne or the Opéra, and also hosts various festivals such as the Route du Rock in February, Les Tombées de la Nuit (street arts festival) in July, or the Yaouank festival (contemporary Breton music) in November.
Several museums will not fail to fascinate the curious: visit, for example, the Ecomuseum of the Pays de Rennes, the Musée des Beaux-Arts or the Musée de la Danse.
