## Resource

The Château des Ducs de Bretagne in Nantes serves as a multifaceted monument that blends a medieval granite fortress with a refined Renaissance palace. Once the seat of the independent Duchy of Brittany under Francis II and his daughter Anne, the site evolved from a royal residence into a barracks and finally a comprehensive history museum. The museum's thirty-two rooms offer a transparent look at the city's past, notably addressing its role in the transatlantic slave trade alongside its industrial and wartime legacy. Visitors can explore the free ramparts and moat gardens for panoramic views of the urban landscape or tour the interior collections to understand the region’s complex political evolution. Located near the train station and the Nantes Cathedral, the castle remains a vital cultural hub that bridges the gap between France's monarchical history and its contemporary identity.
