The Graslin district, in the heart of central Nantes. Google Maps.
The Graslin district was laid out at the end of the eighteenth century, on the initiative of Jean-Joseph-Louis Graslin, on land west of old Nantes. The place Graslin and its neoclassical theatre, opened in 1788, form its heart, extended by the cours Cambronne towards the Loire.
The district links the place Royale to the place Graslin by the rue Crébillon, a major shopping street, and by the passage Pommeraye, a listed nineteenth-century covered arcade. Private mansions and affluent stone buildings line these streets inherited from maritime trade.
