Quiberon, Brittany

A scenic yet interesting seaside town which played a vital part in history: as the battleground during the 18th-century Seven Years’ War as well as the area where French Royalists exiles failed in invading Brittany in the 1975 French Revolution.

Today the town is renowned for its sardine production, thanks to Nicolas Appert who developed a technique that permitted sterilisation of food in the 19th-century. It is also known for its picturesque fishing villages with sandy beaches and a rich cultural history.
