Nantes &
the neighborhood

The Machines de l'Île, the Château des Ducs de Bretagne, the banks of the Erdre, the L.U tower and soon the heron tree: Nantes has no shortage of cultural and artistic treasures! But all these addresses you will find (or have already found) on Insta or at the Tourist Office!

Au Lieu Dit, we believe in a visit that resembles the Nantes of the people of Nantes, so follow us in our alternative and completely subjective recommendations!
