Place Henri-IV, square in Vannes, France
Place Henri-IV is a public square in Vannes surrounded by historic buildings featuring arcades. The space offers outdoor seating areas where you can observe the architecture and daily activity.
The square dates back to the Middle Ages and was long the economic center of Vannes. It was later rebuilt and gained its current form with the characteristic arcades.
The square is named after King Henry IV, who shaped France in the 16th century. Today it serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors sit under the arcades and frequent the surrounding cafés.

Small shops and traditional craft businesses line the arcades, many run by families for generations. These establishments give the square its distinctive character and set it apart from many other French squares.
