   What an (in)spired city! Quimper takes its name from the Breton term “Kemper”, meaning “confluence”. And you can see why, since three rivers flow through this city of art and history, not far from the sea, where nature and stone, traditional and contemporary know-how are showcased in equal measure. River Odet connects the city to the ocean.

   • Quimper Cathedral. Often the best cathedrals are the ones that are a bit irregular, and Quimper’s certainly comes into that category. This magnificent building is unique because the north side of the nave curves slightly inwards at the middle; this was done to avoid an area of swampy ground during construction in the 13th century.
   • Musée des Beaux-Arts. Much of what greets you at Quimper’s Fine Arts Museum belonged to one man, Jean-Marie de Silguy, who donated more than a thousand works in 1864 on the proviso that the city built a museum in which to display them.
   • Musée de la Faïence. For a lot of people “Quimper” means ceramics: Faïence pottery has been produced in the Locmaria quarter, just southwest of the centre of Quimper, since the late-17th century.
   • Musée Départemental Breton. In the Episcopal palace where the Cornouaille Bishops lived from the 1500s to the 1800s, the Breton Departmental Museum is an absorbing ride through the rich heritage and culture of Quimper and Finistère.
