The Saint-Georges Palace is a historic building of the city of Rennes. The former abbey was completed in 1670 and replaced the older, already existing abbey of the Benedictines Saint Georges. In 1792, the abbey had to be closed during the French Revolution and was taken over by the government. Since 1930, it has been one of France's historic buildings. The garden to the south of the palace is open to the public. On the north side is located in the palace, among other things, a fire station of the city of Rennes.
