About Nantes

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, 15th-century Château des Ducs de Bretagne, where the Dukes of Brittany once lived. The castle is now a local history museum with multimedia exhibits, and visitors can walk among its turrets. During the Gallic period the area belonged to the Namnetes, who were conquered by Julius Caesar in 56 BC. In 2003, the French weekly L'Express voted Nantes to be the "greenest city" in France, while in both 2003 and 2004 it was voted the "best place to live" by the weekly Le Point. Nantes has a Western European oceanic climate, with frequent rainfalls all year round and cool temperatures.
