I am Awen. I was born in Rennes, and I am a Breton speaker. I enjoy making people discover my city and guiding them through the old town to discover details about the city, to raise their heads to see the architecture, and learn details about Rennes they wouldn't have otherwise.
I will guide you through Sainte Anne, the Lices square, the Portes Mordelaises, the Breton parliament, and many other places of the city centre, filled with legends and history that will make you shiver, laugh, and wonder!
