Tréguier

Tréguier, a medieval gem of the Trégor

Set along the banks of the Jaudy River, Tréguier is one of the most beautiful small towns in the Côtes-d’Armor. A former episcopal city, it blends rich history, a gentle pace of life, and bucolic river landscapes.

A majestic cathedral

No visit to Tréguier would be complete without admiring the Saint-Tugdual Cathedral, a masterpiece of Breton Gothic architecture. Its 15th-century cloister is a peaceful haven, lined with sculpted arcades and ancient tombstones.

Strolling through the historic center

Its cobbled streets, colorful half-timbered houses, and granite façades reflect a prosperous past. Every corner unveils a piece of history, poetry, and timeless charm.

The Bishop’s Gardens

Just steps from the cathedral, the Bishop’s Gardens offer stunning views over the Jaudy Valley. This peaceful, flower-filled space is ideal for a contemplative break.

A cultural hub of Brittany

Tréguier is also the birthplace of philosopher and writer Ernest Renan. His childhood home is open to visitors, featuring exhibitions about his life and legacy.

🧭 Also worth discovering: the Wednesday morning market, the riverside pontoons along the Jaudy, and the small art galleries tucked away in the town center.
