Brittany (/ˈbrɪtəni/; French: Bretagne [bʁətaɲ] ( listen); Breton: Breizh, pronounced [bʁɛjs] or [bʁɛχ]; Gallo: Bertaèyn, pronounced [bəʁtaɛɲ]) is a cultural region in the northwest of France, covering the western part of what was known as Armorica during the period of Roman occupation. It became an independent kingdom and then a duchy before being united with the Kingdom of France in 1532 as a province governed as if it were a separate nation under the crown.

In Paimpont, there is a particular workshop making dolls similar to our Breton grandmothers. Like a gallery, you will discover dolls dressed in lace with a protruding chin, brown and round eyes like marbles. Made on the spot, the Poupees Grand Mere are unique pieces.
