A small town of character located at equal distance from Saint-Malo<\/a> and Mont Saint-Michel<\/a>, Dol de Bretagne deserves a stop. You will be charmed by its cobbled streets, its imposing cathedral and its unobstructed view of the bay of Mont Saint-Michel.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dol de Bretagne, a town with a historical heritage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dol de Bretagne is characterized by the presence of the prestigious St Samson cathedral, known as one of the most beautiful in the region. Built in the 12th and 13th centuries, the cathedral is the legacy of a prestigious past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This small Breton town, an ancient medieval city, has ramparts to the north and south, a sign of a past military presence. But Dol de Bretagne is also a character town marked by wooded houses. The Maison des Plaids, for example, has been recognized as the oldest building in Brittany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to do in Dol de Bretagne?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walk in the small streets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From the Saint Samson Cathedral, by taking the pretty little Rue Ceinte, lined with typical houses, you will reach the town centre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking along the main street of Dol de Bretagne, very popular for shopping, is also a nice walk. You go up the Grande Rue des Stuart on one side, up to the Place Chateaubriand and down on the other sidewalk to the Place Toullier. All along this very lively street, you will discover houses with half-timbering walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
