Hiking
Rennes train station is a major transport hub in Brittany and has a high passenger volume, with several million travelers passing through annually. It was designed by architect Jean-Marie Duthilleul, who is known for his modern and functional station buildings (including those at Paris-Montparnasse). The station's design is characterized by transparency, clean lines, and abundant natural light, creating a pleasant atmosphere for travelers. Particularly striking is the glass pedestrian walkway that connects the platforms and is undoubtedly the station's architectural highlight: like a cloud of mist on a beautiful summer morning, it hangs over the tracks.
