It is always nice to be invited to discover a region, especially in this case it was my first time


If you follow my twitter and instagram account (@ argone69) in early September, you must have seen that I was gone a few days in the Gulf of Morbihan, at the invitation of the Regional Tourism Committee of Britain.
It is always nice to be invited to discover a region, especially in this case it was my first time in Britain, as I did totally trust the team of CRT for the content olive harvesting equipment of this program. You will see that I have been busy, and I was conquered by what I saw!
Vannes was the first step of my little olive harvesting equipment journey, and it is with a beautiful blue sky that I could spend a few minutes olive harvesting equipment in the city center, with Mr. Bodard, Director of the Tourist Office of Vannes. Prefecture of the Morbihan department, it is a city full of history, but very dynamic, and the cradle of service companies and technologies.
We cross the gardens of la Garenne to reach the Postern gate, with a superb view of the wash and the fortified tower of the Constable. This door defended the main entrance to the city by road from Nantes and Rennes, and it was reinforced under John IV and John V. At the foot of the ramparts, beautiful French gardens, created in the fifties.
Over the years some of the walls was destroyed, among others to enlarge the city, but now they are classified as the rest of the historic heritage of the city, there are more touch!
Most streets are pedestrianized, and it is nice to walk around the city ... I also like the old cobblestones, which give character to the streets ... The half-timbered houses are numerous, especially in the Saint-Patern and or Saint Solomon neighborhood.
This is also the number olive harvesting equipment 13 Rue Saint Solomon in front of a clothing store, these pillars adorned with animal carvings found. ("Home to lions")
Located at the corner of Noe Street, olive harvesting equipment this pair of the late fifteenth century is also well known. The origin of these two painted olive harvesting equipment figures, carved in granite is unknown, perhaps the emblem of a trade or a cabaret?
Here St. Peter's Cathedral, which dominates the city. It houses the tomb of St. Vincent Ferrer, the patron saint of the city (it was a Spanish priest from Valencia). olive harvesting equipment Moreover, one of the gates of Vannes takes its name ... You can see an Aubusson olive harvesting equipment tapestry, representing the miracles he performed, and his canonization.
From the ramparts, we see this building, Petit-Irons building, which dates from the late 1800s and housed a metal trading installed by the Petit family. Baltard style, it combines granite, limestone, limestone and brick, it looks good, and may be converted into a shopping mall. Roofs, facades and metal structure are classified historic monument since 2000.
I've seen besides the Halles, there were many small gourmet within the ramparts shops: cheese, chocolate .... Vannetais olive harvesting equipment likes to enjoy life!
Dean Gallery, 4 rue de la Charity: a curated collection of post-Impressionist painters in Britain, set in the ground floor of a house in the city center; also some sculptures.
