ARTICLES RELATED TO Brittany - Sights | | | |  Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Brittany - SightsBrittany is famous for its megalithic monuments, which are scattered over the peninsula, the largest alignments are near Carnac. The purpose of these monuments is still unknown, and many local people are reluctant to entertain speculation on the subject. The words dolmen (from "daol" table and "maen" stone) and menhir (from "maen" stone and "hir" high) come from the Breton language, even though they are hardly used in Breton.
Brittany is also known for its (calvaries), elaborately carved sculptures of crucifixion scenes, to be found in churchyards of villages and small tow ...

| | | | Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Rennes - History Main article: History of Rennes
Rennes is the capital of the région of Brittany, in France. It has a long history due to its location at a confluent of two rivers.
The eastern Armorican people of Redones founded Condate— an ancient Celtic word meaning confluent— at the confluence of the Ille and Vilaine rivers and made it the capital of a territory that extended to the Bay of Mont Saint Michel. The name of the city of Rédon also reflects that of the Redones. Early in the 1st century BCE, they adopted the greek and ...

Megaliths erected in the 5th millennium BC are the best known Neolithic remains. Roman sources record the Armoricani tribes of the Veneti, Osismii, Namneti, Coriosoliti and Riedoni as inhabiting the area in the iron age.

The two regional languages have no official status as regards the state, although they are supported by the regional authorities within the strict constitutional limits: Breton, strongest in the west but to be seen all over Brittany, is a Celtic language related to Welsh, and Gallo, which is spoken in th ...

| | | | Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Brittany - Climate Since Brittany is on the west coast of France, it has a warm temperate climate. It does rain sometimes, which is one of the reasons its countryside is so green and wooded, but it is most likely that there will be more sun than cloud.
It can get pretty hot in the summer months, up to about 30 degrees C, but unlike France south of the Loire, you are unlikely to get scorched to the tarmac. Overall, Brittany's climate is fair, not too hot and not too cold, and you are not likely to get too wet, only sometimes. Image:http://www.discover-brittany.info/pics/climatesummer.gif

cider (Breton: chistr) - Brittany is the second largest cider-producing region in France;
a sort of mead made from wild honey called chouchen;
an apple brandy called lambig.
Some beers are also now produced, although the region does not have a strong tradition of brewing. Another recent drink is the kir Breton (crème de cassis and cide ...

| | | | Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Brittany - Language French, the only official language of the French Republic, is nowadays spoken all over Brittany, but the region has one other language with no official status: Breton, a Celtic language related to Welsh. Gallo, a Romance language is a variant of "Oil Languages" as French is.
From the very beginning of its history and despite the end of the independance of Brittany, Breton remained the language of the entire population of western Brittany, if not bishops and french administrators or officers. French laws and economic pressure lead peop ...

| | | | Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Brittany - Religion The first Christian missionaries came to the region from Ireland and Great Britain. With more than 300 "saints" (only a few recognized by the Catholic Church), the region is strongly Catholic. Since the nineteenth century at least, Brittany has been known as one of the most devoutly Catholic regions in France, in contrast to many other more secularised areas. The proportion of students attending Catholic private schools is the highest in France. As in other Celtic countries, the legacy of Celtic Christianity has left a rich tradition of loca ...

| | | | Brittany - Sights: Encyclopedia II - Brittany - Culture Since the 1970s Breton music has undergone a revival and has become popular even outside the region. Alan Stivell resuscitated the Celtic harp tradition, and folk rock groups such as Tri Yann, Sonerien Du (the "black musicians") and others paved the way for younger groups who now offer a range of Celtic-influenced rock, rap, and dance music.
A popular tradition is the fest noz -- best described as a Breton céilí. Large-scale Celtic festivals are held in the summer in towns around the region. The biggest of these is the ...
