France-Rennes, the new heart of Brittanny
FRANCE, RENNES, A LIVING HEART OF THE BRITTANNY
Rennes, Rennes is the capital of the Bretagne region, as well as the Ille-et-Vilaine department, is the third fastest-growing city in France, after Toulouse and Montpellier. The city is visited for its history symbolising Brittany's glorious past, but is equally popular for its colourful and faithfully restored timber-carved Middle-age houses, more of all Brittanny, and contemporary architecture. Rennes invests heavily in arts, culture and festivals. More than 40.000 students of the local university populate every night the charming cafès of the historic center with live music and atmosphere.
