Rennes

Rennes is the chief city of Brittany in northwest France. It's mostly modern and industrial, but has many grand 18th and 19th century buildings, and survivors of earlier times. It's also well-endowed with cultural attractions. In 2020 the city population was 222,485, with about 150,000 more living in the wider metropolis.

Understand

Rennes has long been one of the main towns of Brittany, but until 1806 it was overshadowed by the capital and Atlantic port Nantes. Then under Napoleon I Bonaparte, Nantes lost that role and indeed was removed from Brittany, so Rennes came to the fore. Its small river Vilaine was canalised and made navigable, and connected to other towns, so freight and industry were boosted even before the arrival of the railway. Its higgledy-piggledy medieval streets and half-timbered houses were mostly lost to a great fire in 1720, and replaced by stately stone mansions on a grid pattern, though the area east of the cathedral retains some of its older style.

The city was badly damaged in the Second World War: in 1940 German bombing hit an ammunition train parked next to troop and refugee trains, the day before the occupation of the city; and then it was heavily bombed by the Allies in 1943 and 1944. Postwar Rennes developed metal-bashing heavy industries, but as elsewhere in the West these succumbed to Asian competition from the 1970s. There were many strikes, demos and riots. From the 1990s the city regrouped around telecoms and service industries. The university also grew, so modern Rennes has a large student population, which gives it a bit of a buzz. Traditionally the students throng the bars on Thursday nights.

The climate is Atlantic: it can rain any day, though not as much as on the coast: see the Météo forecast.

1 Destination Rennes is the Tourist Office, at 1 Rue Saint-Malo 50 m north of Metro Sainte-Anne  a  b . It's open M 14:00-18:00, Tu-Sa 10:00-18:00, Su 10:00–13:00 & 14:00–17:00.

Get in

By plane

• 1 Rennes Bretagne Airport (RNS  ^IATA), Ave Joseph le Brix, Saint-Jacques-de-la-Lande, ☏ +33 2 99 29 60 00, accueil@rennes.aeroport.fr. This has regular flights from Europe and London, mostly by budget carriers. For the time being, Air France fly 2 or 3 times a day from Paris CDG, but this is going to fall foul of the law banning French domestic flights for journeys that can be done overland in less than 2½ hours. Other domestic flights are from Lyon, Marseille, Nice and Toulouse. The airport has the usual facilities including car rental. (updated Jun 2023)

To town: The airport is 6 km southwest of city centre.

- Bus C6 runs daily every 30 min between 05:00 and 00:00. It takes 20 min to Centre Commercial Cesson, with a stop by the art museum on Quai Emil Zola. Bus 57 from the airport was axed.

- Saint-Jacques de la Lande railway station is 1 km east of the airport. It has trains every few hours on the TER Breizh line between Rennes (5 min) and Messac-Guipry.

- Taxis wait outside Arrivals. A ride downtown might be €20.

• Nantes Atlantique (NTE ^IATA) has a similar choice of flights.
• Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG ^IATA) has global flight connections.
• Dinard–Pleurtuit–Saint-Malo (DNR ^IATA) nowadays only has private aviation.

By train

For fare deals see Rail travel in France.

Trains run hourly from Paris Montparnasse, taking 90 min nonstop to Rennes. They continue to Saint-Brieuc and Brest, another two hours, as the winding line through Brittany isn't upgraded for TGV speeds. From Paris CDG airport take the RER train into the city and change at Chatelet/Les Halles for Montparnasse - the direct train starting in Lille only runs twice a day. Likewise from the south of France, you usually change across Paris.

From Nantes an hourly regional train takes 80 min nonstop. From St Malo an hourly regional train takes an hour via five stops. From Quimper an hourly train takes two hours via Lorient and Vannes. From Caen a twice-daily train takes 3 hr 20 min via Avranches (for Mont St-Michel).

2 Gare de Rennes is clean and modern, with Gares metro and bus station just outside. Walk 1 km north for the historic centre.

By bus

Blablacar (owned by the rail company SNCF) runs eight times a day from Paris (Bercy-Seine), taking 4-5 hours via Le Mans. In 2023 an adult single is about €35. There's one direct service daily from Paris CDG Airport. Flixbus have three late-night runs.

Blablacar services from other French cities are often car-share rides, and may start or drop off some distance from city centres.

BreizhGo is the regional bus company. It connects over twenty villages and small towns to Rennes: routes a visitor might use are from Saint-Malo, Dinard and Vitré.

Rennes bus station is next to the railway station and Metro Gares  a  b .

By road

From Paris follow A10 / A11 west past Chartres to Le Mans then A81 past Laval.

Get around

Rue du Chapitre in Old Town

Walking is always first choice in the compact city centre.

By public transport

Star is the city transport system, with 50 bus lines and two Metro (VAL) lines. The hub for these is the mainline railway and intercity bus station Gares. The principal routes run 05:30 to 00:30. The metro lines run an extra hour longer until almost 02:00 on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings.

In 2023 a single ticket is €1.50, valid for one hour and unlimited transfers. A one day pass is €4.20, three days is €11.70 and seven is €18.35. Longer passes (KorrigoCards) are available from Gares travel centre - you'll need photo ID, which they scan onto the card.

Metro Line A runs northwest to southeast, from JFK to Villejean University, Sainte-Anne, Gares and out to La Poterie. Line B, opened in 2022, runs northeast to southwest, from Cesson via Sainte-Anne, Gares, and out to Saint-Jacques.

By bike

Rennes has plenty of cycle lanes, and for a pleasant excursion follow the canal.

Le Vélo STAR is the rental bike system, part of the public transport system. You register online and pay €150 deposit, which enables you to pick up a bike from any of the 80-some docking stations. Then you pay €1 for a trip up to one hour and €2 for 24 hours; electric bikes cost more. Longer tariffs are available up to 12 months.

By car

Avoid using a car in city centre: many routes are barred to private vehicles, and parking is scarce and expensive.

Parcs-relais is the Park & Ride system. Eight metro / bus stations have car parks, free to enter and more importantly free to exit by using your transport ticket. These are J.F. Kennedy  a  (not Su), Villejean-Université  a , Cesson-Viasilva  b , Les Gayeulles  b  and Saint-Jacques - Gaîté  b  (not Su) in the north, Les Préales in the east (bus only, not Su), and Henri Fréville  a  (not Su) and La Poterie  a  in the south.

Taxis wait at Gares. There are over a dozen operators.
