Take a step back into the 15th century with a guided tour in Dinan led by Barbe, an assistant mason who has worked on several projects throughout the city.

Explore the city’s architecture shaped by tensions between the King of France and the Duke of Brittany, as Dinan had to fortify its defenses. Learn about the daily life of Dinan’s citizens, who lived amid the construction of new safeguards for the city.

Equipped with her tools, Barbe will take you from the city’s fortified walls to the narrow streets of the medieval town, discussing the building techniques of the 15th century and the art of warfare, while debunking prevalent misconceptions about women’s roles in medieval society.
