Voyage à Nantes 2019 : Une horloge Humaine Place Graslin
Malachi Farrel, Constantin Leu et Ludovic Nobileau ont réquisitionné la façade de l'immeuble de la Cigale pour y accrocher leur coucou qui sonnera toutes heures 24h/24h, la nuit de façon silencieuse nous a-t-on prévenus.
L'idée était de renouer avec la tradition des horloges publiques, expliquent les artistes, symboles de pouvoir. Ils ont voulu une horloge humaine pour marquer le temps de manière organique, naturelle, en opposition avec le temps fixe des horloges. Les gens connaissent l'heure qu'il est mais pas leur heure chronobiologique interne.

Places to see in ( Nantes - France ) Place Graslin
The Place Graslin is one of the main squares in the city center of Nantes , in France , of which the most significant monument is the Graslin Theater. Place Graslin is shaped like a rectangle attached to a semicircle whose flare is oriented towards the South. It is served by eight arteries: the streets Crebillon , Moliere , Corneille , Racine , Voltaire , Piron , Regnard and Jean-Jacques-Rousseau .
The square is mostly paved and pedestrianized , except the west side serving the streets Racine and Piron (the beginning of the street Voltaire is also pedestrianized) which are open to traffic. On its north side is the Graslin Theater ; south of the square is La Cigale brewery .
While the place is still a project, the city office decided, September 22, 1780, that the new esplanade should receive the name of Place Graslin, in tribute to the promoter. Mathurin Crucy seems to be the only one to have proposed the name of Place de la Comédie
From 1777, Jean-Joseph-Louis Graslin , receiver general of the farms of the kingdom, buys vast lands to the West of the city, on what was until then only a sparsely populated rocky hill. He decides to realize a real estate transaction. The municipality of Nantes, then led by Jean-Baptiste Gellée de Prémion , being reluctant, Graslin won his adhesion by donating to the city land necessary for streets and squares, by taking charge of the necessary leveling works, and by lending to low rate of interest to the community money for road works.
La Cigale , a famous art nouveau brasserie , facing the theater, is inaugurated on1 st April 1895. It is the work of the ceramic architect Nantes Émile Libaudière and was listed as a historic monument in 1964. In n o 2, the angle occupant building between Voltaire and Racine streets hosted a hotel garni second prestigious building that Graslin was able to locate the place (after theater) 8 . Named first Hotel Henri IV, the former name of the course Cambronne neighbor, he was then called the Hotel de France (not to be confused with the hotel of the same name who succeeded him at n o 24 from the rue Crébillon) 9 . Arthur Young , in 1787, notes I doubt that there is in Europe more beautiful inn than the Henri-IV hotel, and Stendhal , in 1837, considers that it isA beautiful hotel.

Depuis, heureusement, on a réaménagé le centre-ville qu'on va découvrir à travers la visite du très sympathique quartier Graslin avec ses brasseries, ses passages couverts et ses chocolats aussi. Ils sont vraiment chanceux les Nantais !

Places to see in ( Nantes - France )
Nantes, a city on the Loire River in the Upper Brittany region of western France, has a long history as a port and industrial center. It's home to the restored, medieval Château des Ducs de Bretagne, where the Dukes of Brittany once lived. The castle is now a local history museum with multimedia exhibits, as well as a walkway atop its fortified ramparts.
Nantes was once an important port located 50 km up the Loire River. It grew rich on the triangular trade with Africa and the West Indies. Nantes is also famous for being the home of the science fiction writer Jules Verne.
Several well known districts in Nantes:
1 Place du Commerce: This is the centre of the city and everybody will be able to direct you here. Near here you will find la Place Royale, le Quai de la Fosse, la rue Crébillon (famous for its posh shops)
2 Place du Bouffay: Old Nantes, with many restaurants and known for foreign food. There are also many bars.
3 Talensac: Famous for its market.
4 Decré: A pedestrian shopping district close to Bouffay.
5 Île de Versailles: An island in the river Erdre close to the city centre (reach it from Tram line 2). The entire island is a Japanese garden and is a pleasant place to relax.
6 Rue Crébillon: Semi pedestrian street at the junction of la place Royale and la place Graslin, where the main clothes shops are situated. Pour ceux qui ne compte pas leur argent (for those who do not count their money).
7 Quai de la fosse: Bars and prostitutes on the week-end. Used to be called by locals Quai de la fesse (Quay of Buttocks).
Butte St-Anne: West of the place du Commerce, in the quartier de Chantenay. Old buildings and a view on the former port.
8 Le quai des Antilles: A nice place to get a drink. Lots of bars and restaurants.
You can take Nantes out of Brittany (as when regional boundaries were redrawn during WWII), but you can't take Brittany out of its long-time capital, Nantes (Naoned in Breton). Spirited and innovative, this artsy city on the banks of the Loire has a history of reinventing tself. It was founded by Celts around 70 BC and in AD 937 it joined the duchy of Brittany. The Edict of Nantes, a landmark royal charter guaranteeing civil rights to France's Huguenots (Protestants), was signed in Nantes by Henri IV in 1598.

Places to see in ( Nantes - France )
Nantes, a city on the Loire River in the Upper Brittany region of western France, has a long history as a port and industrial center. It's home to the restored, medieval Château des Ducs de Bretagne, where the Dukes of Brittany once lived. The castle is now a local history museum with multimedia exhibits, as well as a walkway atop its fortified ramparts.
Nantes is the capital city of the Pays de la Loire region and the Loire-Atlantique département, and it is the largest city in traditional Brittany and in the whole Grand-Ouest (northwestern France). Together with Vannes, Rennes and Carhaix, it was one of the major cities of the historic province of Brittany and the ancient Duchy of Brittany. Nantes is still widely regarded as its capital city.
The Nantes Tramway opened in 1985, a reversal of the trend of tramway closures that had been going on since the middle of the 20th century. The tramway system is one of the largest and busiest in France. The city also has a Busway line, an innovative and notable bus rapid transit. Nantes is served by an international airport, Nantes Atlantique Airport and a major French railway station, the Gare de Nantes.
Nantes is located on the banks of the Loire River, at the confluence of the Erdre and the Sèvre Nantaise, 55 kilometres (34 miles) from the Atlantic Ocean. The city was built in a place where many branches of the Loire river created several islands, but most of those branches were filled in at the beginning of the 20th century (and the confluence with the Erdre river diverted and covered) due to the increasing car traffic. Nantes is the central point of the land hemisphere (the half of the earth containing the largest possible area of land).

Places to see in ( Nantes - France ) Dobree Museum
Places to see in ( Nantes - France ) Dobree Museum
The Musée Dobrée is a museum in Nantes, in the quartier Graslin in the immediate outskirts of the city centre and very close to the city's Natural History Museum. It was given to the city by Thomas Dobrée (13 August 1810 – 1895) and now belongs to the Conseil général de la Loire-Atlantique. In January 2010, the Conseil général began a project to restructure and modernise the museum, which is planned for completion in 2015.
From an old Huguenot family which had originated in Normandy before moving to Guernsey in the 16th century, whose other members became businessmen and arms-bearers in Nantes, Thomas Dobrée found himself with a large fortune at a young age. He then abandoned business aged 28 to collect artworks for 64 years of his life. From 1862, he devoted himself to building his 'palais', to house the over 10,000 objets d'art which he had spent his life collecting. His collections were particularly rich in precious books such as incunables and old Breton printed books, along with miniature paintings on manuscripts, autographs, coins, medals and the other graphic arts (notably German and Dutch engravings). His collection also included important holdings of sculpture, paintings and decorative art objects from the Middle Ages to the end of the 19th century.
Built in the immediate outskirts of the 15th century manor of John V, Duke of Brittany, the palais Dobrée was in the Romanesque Revival style dear to Viollet-le-Duc, although it was a joint work by the architects Simon, Boismen, Chenantais and Le Diberder, who were constantly troubled by their patron regarding it. Its form was inspired by the designs on the Saint Calminius Reliquary, which was part of the collection. In total Dobrée spent 100,000 francs (254,000 Euros) a year over 34 years, though he never lived there and it was only completed after his death.
By a deed witnessed by a notary on 8 August 1894, Thomas Dobrée left the palais and his collections to the Département de Loire-Inférieure - the bequest planned that the Départemenat would be able to transfer its archaeological museum into the manoir de la Touche, but stipulated that Dobrée's collections had to be kept separate from the archaeological collections, as is still the case. The conseil général accepted the bequest and decided to name the museum the Musée Thomas Dobrée. In 1896 the archaeological collections were moved in and in 1899 the museum opened its doors to the public. In 1974 an extension was built and a modern building constructed in a corner of the palais' garden - it was there that the old archaeological museum's collections (notably the Egyptian antiquities) were displayed, with the palais itself given over entirely to Dobrée's collection
