What to do in Saint-Brieuc when it rains
The Musée d’art et d’histoire, the Brieuc biscuit factory, La Passerelle and the Musée de la Briqueterie: our ideas for a rainy day in Saint-Brieuc and around the bay.
4 min read
Saint-Brieuc has indoor visits that are less well known than those of the big cities, but they tell the story of the bay and its trades well.
The Musée d’art et d’histoire
It tells the story of the town and the Saint-Brieuc area, from the trades of the sea to those of the land, with exhibitions that change during the year.
The biscuit factory and the Briqueterie
In Yffiniac, the Brieuc workshops can be visited, biscuits and caramels included. In Langueux, the Musée de la Briqueterie, in a former tile works on the edge of the bay, tells the story of a thousand years of activity around the foreshore; its opening hours vary with the season.
