This great museum is positioned next to the Fine Art Museum on the banks of the river in central Rennes. The purpose of the gallery is to help people get an understanding of the unique Breton culture, how it has developed from the earliest days, what defines people as being Breton and what continues to make Brittany so fiercely independent from the rest of France. Using historical documents, artefacts and pictures, the museum takes you on a fun ride through history.
