Rochefort-en-Terre
On the foothills of the Lanvaux moors, in the heart of Morbihan, the town of Rochefort-en-Terre nestles on a rocky spur, at the base of its château which has, since the 12th century, overlooked and protected the town with its extraordinary architectural heritage and witnessed its rich history.
This book tells its story and recounts the ups and downs which forged the town and inspired all its future generations to preserve its wonderful heritage.
As a « Petite Cité de Caractère » (« Small Town of Character »), « Village Fleuri de France » (« French Village in Bloom ») one of the « Plus Beaux Villages de France (« Most Beautiful Villages of France »), Rochefort-en-Terre is one of the major tourist draws in southern Brittany. Here we reveal to you some of its charms.
