1 Rue du Roi Gradlon, 29000 Quimper, France
Created in 1846, the Breton departmental museum is the oldest in Finistère. Its walls and collections invite you to discover the rich diversity of Breton heritage. Pushing the doors of the Breton departmental museum is above all entering a place full of history. Housed in the former episcopal palace of Quimper, the museum still contains many witnesses of this building built in the 16th century: the kitchen, the fresco room, the apartments, or the Rohan tower will reveal the secrets of the eventful history of the building during the visit.
