Places to see in ( Dinan - France )
Dinan is a town in Brittany, northwest France. It’s known for its medieval ramparts, cobblestone streets and half-timbered houses. Dinan Castle has a 14th-century keep and the Tour du Coëtquen, a 15th-century artillery tower. The grand, Gothic-style Saint-Malo Church has vibrant stained-glass windows. The Clock Tower offers panoramic views. The Rail Museum has model railways, plus posters and signal boxes.
Dinan is without doubt one of the most attractive and best preserved small towns in Brittany. With its 1.8 mile (3km)-long ramparts, half-timbered houses, attractive port and cobbled streets filled with art galleries and craft shops, it’s worth a day of anyone’s time.
The most attractive part of Dinan is arguably its port, which is where you’ll arrive if you take a boat from Dinard or St Malo. The quay is lined with old stone houses, many of which are now waterside restaurants and chandlers’ shops. Take a walk along the old towpath or cross the 15th-century stone bridge to Lanvallay to find out about life on the river in the Maison de la Rance discovery centre. Wherever you are, you won’t miss the 131ft (40m)-high viaduct.
From the port, make your way up the steep Rue du Petit-Fort, which was Dinan’s main point of access until the 18th century. This cobbled hill with its half-timbered houses appears on many a postcard; have a browse in the arts and crafts shops. Dinan has been designated a Ville d’Art et d’Histoire (Town of Art and History) and the town is filled with artists, sculptors, engravers, bookbinders, glassblowers and more.
Dinan’s old town is a warren 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.
To get your bearings, climb the 158 steps to the top of the 40m (132ft)-high Tour de l’Horloge for wonderful views over Dinan and the surrounding area – you can see as far as Mont St Michel on a clear day. Nearby Place du Guesclin is the site of the Thursday-morning market.
The 13th-century castle now houses the town’s museum and this is the best place to start a tour of the magnificent ramparts, 8804ft (2684m) long, which are the oldest and most impressive in Brittany. Dinan holds the Fête des Remparts medieval festival each July.

Built on a hill overlooking the Rance Valley, Dinan is located in Upper Brittany, in the department of Côtes-d'Armor. This medieval Town of Art and History, surrounded by tall ramparts that run for three kilometres, dates back to the Celtic era, but the monks settled on the banks of the Rance in the 9th century. The town developed in the 11th century around a priory. Having become a ducal town in the late 13th century, Dinan benefited from this new status as it developed.
In Dinan, time seems to have stood still. The picturesque cobbled streets, whose restaurants and pancake houses sometimes feature medieval decorations, invite long walks. There are pretty shops and emblematic monuments to see. The small harbour is the starting point for boat excursions on the Rance.Various hikes and water sports activities are available on the banks of the river. There is also the House of the Rance, a museum about the valley that offers many activities including walks, bike rides and boat trips.
After a walk around the harbour, where trade developed in the Middle Ages, head to the picturesque cobbled street of Le Jerzual, an old, steep path that connects the harbour with the medieval town. This charming street lined with half-timbered houses and many art and craft shops used to be the street where weavers and tanners lived. Nowadays they have been replaced by wood-gilders and glass-blowers.
Dinan is a medieval city with old antique walls that welcomes every two years his party Remparts in July. The old town is completely restored, and there are many shops timbered houses reminiscent of old crafts (glass blower, period furniture woodworkers, weavers, pottery...). You find them in the pedestrian street of Jerzual, and there, down this street you will arrive at the port of Dinan, the ride is beautiful. You can also make a mini cruise on the river Rance to the village of Léhon upstream, whose visit is essential, and to the lock of Yvet downstream to sample mussels and chips
Built in the 14th century, Dinan Castle is now a museum with art and history collections. It consists of three parts: the Guichet Gate, the keep and the Coëtquen Tower. The unusual 12th-century Basilica of St. Saviour was never completed. This religious monument combines Byzantine, Persian and Romanesque influences, and contains the heart of Bertrand Du Guesclin. For a lovely view of the town and the Rance, head to the Clock Tower: standing 46 metres tall, this 15th-century edifice is open from April to September and is the highest point in the town.

Modélisme ferroviaire - Musée du train de Dinan
Musée rambolitrain
Le Musée Rambolitrain de Rambouillet (musée du train et de la maquette) est situé au cœur de la ville, à quelques pas de l'église Saint Lubin. Il fut fondé par Jacques Visbecq, un collectionneur patient à qui le musée doit non seulement l'essentiel des 4000 pièces exposées, mais aussi l'édifice qui les abrite, et Alain Baldit, un modéliste passionné et surdoué.
Au premier étage sont exposés des éléments de trains qui sont avant tout des jouets pour les enfants. Mais pour Alain Baldit, l'objet seul n'explique pas le rêve suscité par le train : Il n'y a pas que le train mais aussi tout ce qu'il y a autour du train; c'est-à-dire les gares, les destinations, les trajets et leurs beaux paysages, les accessoires, etc. ésentent, en plus des wagons et des locomotives de rigueur, des parties de gares finement réalisées, des lampadaires, des chariots repas et autres accessoires ferroviaires. Suite à la commémoration des 100 ans du Métropolitain en 2000, quelques wagons de métro sont venus augmenter la collection. La pièce la plus ancienne fut construite en 1895, en pleine révolution industrielle et expansion du train. L'idée est de perpétuer le souvenir d'un monde révolu

Places to see in ( Orsay - France )
Orsay is a commune in the Essonne department in Île-de-France in northern France. Orsay is located in the southwestern suburbs of Paris, France, 20.7 km from the centre of Paris. Inhabitants of Orsay are known as Orcéens.
There has been a village called Orsay on this site since 999, and the first church there was consecrated in 1157. From the sixteenth century, the town and surrounding area were owned by the Boucher family, and it was in honour of this family that Louis XIV gave the quai d'Orsay its name. This is the reason that the Musée d'Orsay is not in Orsay. In the eighteenth century, the family of Grimod du Fort bought the land and received the title of comte d'Orsay. In 1870, during the Franco-Prussian war, Orsay was occupied by the Prussian army. 88 young Orcéens were killed in the First World War.
In 1957, largely due to the influence of Frédéric and Irène Joliot-Curie, the Institut de physique nucléaire (nuclear physics institute) was opened in the Chevreuse valley, and the region, especially Orsay, became an important scientific centre. Another development was the creation of the Université de Paris-Sud, whose most important faculty is the faculty of science. On 19 February 1977, a part of the territory of Orsay was detached and merged with a part of the territory of Bures-sur-Yvette to create the commune of Les Ulis. Orsay is served by two stations on Paris RER line B: Le Guichet and Orsay-Ville.
