Dinan’s old town is amaze of narrow streets where it appears that time has stood still. The quaintest part is Place des Merciers where you’ll find the best examples of the town’s half-timbered houses. Just opposite is the pedestrianised Rue de la Cordonnerie, also known as ‘thirsty street’ as it has nine bars!

The 13th-century castle now houses the town’s museum and this is the best place to start a tour of the magnificent ramparts, 3 km long the ramparts provide a great walk and amazing views of Dinan's fortifications. They were built by the dukes of Brittany. Today they are the longest mediaeval walls north of the Loire Valley.
Reinforced in the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries, the town wall now features 10 towers and four gates which are fascinating examples of military architecture.
Wander through Dinan's narrow cobbled streets, lined with pretty half-timber houses, and discover the Flamboyant Gothic St Malo church and the Basilica of St Saveur. In July the Fête des Remparts takes place. This is a spectacular festival recreating life in medieval times with street celebrations, a market and a jousting tournament and many people dressed in medieval costume. The Château de Dinan is now a museum dedicated to the town's history and Dinan's famous hero, Bertrand du Guesclin, a Breton knight who became a military commander during the Hundred Years' War is remembered with 4 different memorials across the town. In 1357 the English laid seige to the town but it resisted. When Thomas Canterbury kidnapped Guesclin's brother he settled the matter by single combat in the Place Champs Clos opposite the Place Degluescin, which is named after him.
