Les Champs Libres, Cultural center in Rennes, France
Les Champs Libres combines a modern library, science space with planetarium, and Museum of Brittany under one architectural structure designed by Christian de Portzamparc.
The building, inaugurated in 2006, represents a milestone in Rennes' urban development by merging three cultural institutions that were previously scattered across the city.
The Museum of Brittany within Les Champs Libres presents extensive collections of regional artifacts, documents, and exhibitions that detail the heritage of Brittany.
Located near Rennes railway station, the center maintains regular opening hours from Tuesday to Sunday, offering guided tours and educational programs for all age groups.
The center received the Culture Libre label in 2023, recognizing its dedication to providing open access to knowledge through digital resources and cultural programming.
