Must-see places in Dinan
In the heart of Brittany, Dinan captivates with its medieval charm and unique atmosphere between land and sea.
Perched on the heights of the Rance River, this charming town invites you to stroll through its cobbled streets, walk along its imposing ramparts, and immerse yourself in a fascinating journey through the centuries. Here are some must-see places to discover during your stay.
Book your room at the Armor Park Hotel, ideally located just a stone's throw from the medieval city of Dinan.
An emblematic monument of the city, built in the 14th century, Dinan Castle bears witness to the power of the Dukes of Brittany.
The kitchen, banquet hall, state chamber, and chapel reveal the daily life of the court, between the lavish lifestyle and the art of war.
The visit is punctuated by a scenic tour and activities for young and old, making history accessible and lively.
It's impossible to visit Dinan without taking Jerzual Street, another emblem of the city.
This cobbled street connects the historic center to the port and owes its fame to its half-timbered houses and artists' studios.
In the past, weavers and tanners lived on this steep street, whose spectacular gradient (up to 18% over 500 meters!) now makes it a must-see.
With nearly 3 km of ramparts, 10 towers, and 4 gates, Dinan boasts the most impressive fortifications in Brittany.
A tour of the ramparts offers exceptional views of the valley.
At the foot of the ramparts, the port of Dinan offers a peaceful and authentic atmosphere.
Stroll along the quays, admire the moored boats and the old bridge, or take a stroll along the Rance estuary.
From the port, the views of the city are superb!
In the heart of the city, the Basilica of Saint-Sauveur, a blend of Romanesque and Gothic art, is also worth a visit.
It houses the tomb of the famous Bertrand Du Guesclin, a prominent figure of the 14th century.
To make sure you don't miss any of Dinan's must-see attractions, stay at the Armor Park Hotel, near the city center.
