Rennes Cathedral is an imposing building and the religious symbol of the city. Its neoclassical decor and the huge emblem of the Sun King make the building one of the most famous in the entire region. A tour of the building also reveals much of the cathedral's long history. Parts of the building date back to the 12th century. It was partially destroyed in the 18th century and rebuilt a century later. The architectural mix of different eras is particularly remarkable. The contrast between the simple, dark facade and the lavishly decorated, warm interior is particularly striking.
