Dol de Bretagne is in Bretagne, 30 kilometres west of Mont St Michel.
Dol de Bretagne is a very attractive medieval town. (The picture above is 100 years old - little has changed in the high street since, except cars!)
The main centre of the 'old-town' is focussed around the 12th century cathedral of Saint-Samson, where you will see the best of the old architecture. The public park at 'Promenade des Douves' offers good views across the marshes and out to the sea now several kilometres away.
The historic museum in Dol also has some interesting artefacts rescued from various churches in the region.
The large rock/island in the bay - Mont Dol - has a small chapel on the top, and a pleasant walk to get to it.
One particular attraction on the edge of Dol de Bretagne is a neolithic menhir - the Menhir du Champ Dolent - (standing-stone) that is one of the tallest and most impressive in Bretagne, at 9.3 metres tall.
