A short drive from the train station brings you right into Auray town centre, where there’s much to see and do. This attractive destination is split into two main parts: the Saint-Goustan port district on the banks of the river Auray, and the historical centre, perched on a hilltop. Both of these areas are worth exploring.
Sights in the upper quarter include old churches, such as the Church of Saint-Gildas. Rue du Château is a pleasant cobbled street lined with art galleries. Amazing views over the river can also be appreciated around here.
Saint-Goustan originated as a fishing port during the 17th century and remnants from this period can still be seen today. The attractive quays are lined with colourful boats and people often take a scenic stroll around here. One of the quays, Quai Benjamin Franklin, was named after the American President. Franklin arrived in the town in 1776, en route to Paris, to ask for support with the American War of Independence.

Another top spot is the Palais du Parlement de Bretagne – the city’s parliament headquarters, regarded as the finest building in Rennes. Designed by the same architect behind the Palais du Luxembourg in Paris, it’s a sight to be remembered.
Nantes
