Redon, Administrative center in Ille-et-Vilaine, France
Redon is a commune in Ille-et-Vilaine positioned where the Oust and Vilaine rivers converge, creating a natural harbor. This location historically supported maritime trade and made the town an important transportation hub.
A monk named Conwoion founded a monastery in 832 that became the settlement's core. Defensive walls were later built in the 14th century to protect the expanding community.
The Saint-Sauveur sanctuary shapes the old town's character with its Romanesque and Gothic arches. People gather here for religious and cultural events that mark the rhythm of community life throughout the year.
The town offers solid educational facilities and accommodations for students of all levels. Visitors can navigate the compact old quarter easily and find dining options throughout the streets.
The town operates a sustainable heating system that uses trimmed hedges from the surrounding landscape. This approach shows how local resources can be creatively turned into energy.
