Roscoff Historic Center

Roscoff is classified among the small towns of character. In addition to its pretty historic center, the city is known for its cultivation of pink onions that residents sold in England. A museum is dedicated to him. A ferry serves Plymouth in a six-hour crossing.

Beautiful granite houses from the 16th and 17th centuries line Place Lacaze and Rue Amiral-Réveillère. In the latter, pay particular attention to the grotesque facade with arcolade arches of the House of Mary Stuart.

It could be easy to pass by Roscoff as you rush for the ferry to Plymouth, but it's well worth planning to spend some time in this historic town before you depart.

Not to miss; the Onion Johnny museum and the nearby annual artichoke festival in Saint-Pol-de-Léon.
