Crêperie du Centre

Highlight • Other

A nice creperie that has good food and quick service and is open all afternoon 10:00-18:00. A good way to get a meal if arriving after regular mealtime hours.

The castle's imposing towers are reflected in the River Oust. Owned by the Rohan family, one of the oldest families in Brittany, it is the symbol of this pretty town. Plan half a day to stroll through the charming streets of this "petite cité de caractère" (small, particularly picturesque town) and also visit the basilica.

Château de Josselin seen from the Sainte-Croix bridge

Highlight • Castle

Erected at the beginning of the 11th century, the Château de Josselin was once just a simple wooden building. Rebuilt and extended over the centuries, it was modernized by the Rohan family who still live there today.

The castle can be visited and also houses a museum of dolls and toys.

Rohan

Highlight • Settlement

Charming small town on the banks of the river Oust and the Canal from Nantes to Brest which merge for part of the way. It is the home to the House of Rohan, members of which included viscounts, dukes and princes and has had a prominent role in French history. The name of the commune and it's coat of arms are identical to that of the family. Murals and historic buildings tell the story. There is also a helpful visitor center.
