Discovering Vannes

Vannes is a port on the Gulf of Morbihan and is centrally situated for Western France. It is a magical place where sea, land and sky mingle to form changing and exceptional landscapes. It is a rich and varied environment that should be both enhanced and preserved.
Historical and modern, Vannes’ appeal stems as much from its old town walls and mediaeval centre as from its University and forward-looking businesses.
