Brittany Museum

Behind the futuristic glass-paneled façade of the Champs Libres cultural center, the Brittany Museum takes visitors on a walk through the region’s fascinating history. Effectively capturing both the region’s traditional charm and the enduring spirit of the Breton people, the museum’s permanent collection includes over 3,000 artefacts, among them traditional costumes, ancient artworks, gold coins, and prehistoric objects. Additional highlights include a multi-media presentation depicting Brittany through the ages and a special exhibition on the notorious ‘Dreyfus Affair’, a political scandal that made the headlines in the late 19th century. Temporary exhibitions are also hosted regularly, with previous themes as varied as train travel, drinking culture, magic and sorcery, migration, and French advertising.
