Quimper & Locronan
OVERVIEW
The small medieval inland city of Quimper is your main destination.
It is the oldest Breton city and its cathedral is the best example of Gothic religious architecture in Brittany.
Enjoy a visit to this charming medieval town and its half timbered houses with slate roofs.
Locronan is part of the very select clubs of “Small Towns of Character” and “Most beautiful villages of France”, and with good reason.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Quimper is noted for its distinctive Breton character. It is also famous for its Faience pottery which has been made here since 1690.
You will have a fluent English speaking Driver at your full disposal for the entire duration of the tour.
Spend time exploring the shops, acquire some of Quimper’s famous Faience pottery or sample local specialties.
Locronan became a weavers' town in the 15th century with the development of sail cloth manufacturing. This industrial past is on display at the Art and History Museum, which also has a collection of Breton paintings from the early 20th century.
End of tour, return to port.
