Rennes
.jpg/600px-Hdrt1_(Large).jpg)
Rennes is classified as a city of art and history.
Historic centre[edit]
The historic centre is located on the former plan of the ramparts.
There is a difference between the northern city centre and the
southern city centre due to the 1720 fire, which destroyed most of the
timber framed houses in the northern part of the city. The rebuilding
was done in stone, on a grid plan. The southern part, the poorest at
this time, was not rebuilt.
Due to the presence of the parlement de Bretagne, many "hôtels
particuliers" were built in the northern part, the richest in the 18th
century. Most of the monuments historiques can be found there.
Colourful traditional half-timbered houses are situated primarily
along the roads of Saint-Sauveur, Saint-Georges, de Saint-Malo,
Saint-Guillaume, des Dames, du Chapitre, Vasselot, Saint-Michel, de la
Psallette and around the plazas of Champ-Jacquet, des Lices,
Saint-Anne and Rallier-du-Baty.

demonstration. It houses the
