Rochefort-en-Terre
Rochefort-en-Terre is in the Morbihan department in south-west Brittany.
The town, sitting on a promontory, is based around an attractive 'main street' which has some fine ancient houses from the 17th century to be admired, a few in colombage but mostly in the sturdy granite typical of the region.
The other main 'big attractions' in the town are the medieval fortress, partly restored and partly in ruins; and the Church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Tronchaye (especially the stalls in the interior).
The lavoir (ancient public linen washing area) also merits a look.
Note: Rochefort-en-Terre is a 'Ville Fleurie', which adds to the appeal, but has also paid attention to its lighting and merits a second look after night has fallen.
