Weekend in Nantes: what to visit in 2 days

Just 2 hours from Paris by train, Nantes is the ideal destination for a weekend or a 2-day stay.

Located on the banks of the Loire, the city offers a multitude of sites to visit.

Between its museums, monuments, gardens and restaurants, the city of the Dukes of Brittany is not lacking in attractiveness.

Here are some ideas for discovering Nantes and having an unforgettable stay.


Day 1: Discovering historic Nantes


Take the green line


To not miss anything on your trip to Nantes, take the green line marked on the ground which follows the cultural stages, the main monuments or even the works of art, the historic alleys or the remarkable architecture.

The opportunity to visit Nantes on foot from the station district to the Bouffay and Feydeau districts via the Talensac and Chantenay districts.


Visit the Château des Ducs de Bretagne


The Château des Ducs de Bretagne is one of the must-sees in Nantes. Built at the end of the 15th century by François II and Anne of Brittany, it once served as a military fortress before becoming the Breton residence of the kings of France.

Discover the garden, the moats, the courtyard and of course its history museum made up of 32 rooms and more than 1,000 collector's items.

Don't forget to admire the panoramic view of Nantes.


Admire the Passage Pommeraye


This shopping arcade is considered a historic monument in its own right. Created in 1843, this covered passage brings together some of Nantes' chic boutiques.

It has inspired many filmmakers such as Jacques Demy and Agnès Varda.


Day 2: Nantes and its museums


The machines of the island


In the Parc des Chantiers, discover a bestiary of living machines, some of which escape from their workshop.

Climb aboard the Grand Éléphant for an extraordinary ride, admire the gallery of machines and explore the carousel of the marine world.

The visit is punctuated by explanations from the machinists on how these strange creatures work.

An extraordinary experience that should please young and old alike!


The Jules Verne Museum


Along the Promenade des Belvédères, stop at the Jules Verne Museum.

Discover the world of the father of science fiction through a collection of books, manuscripts, illustrations, posters and models.

From the terrace, take a look at the panorama of the Loire and the island of Nantes.


The Memorial to the Abolition of Slavery


This symbolic memorial pays tribute to all forms of slavery in the world.

2,000 commemorative plaques mention the expeditions that left Nantes and the trading posts in Africa and America.

You can also see the Universal Declaration of Human Rights inscribed on large glass panels.

To save time during your visit, opt for the Nantes 48-hour Pass, which gives you access to 50 must-see activities and unlimited transport, for 37 euros.
