A former convent and then a workshop for the shipbuilding navy, it is now a huge space for the people of Brest and many kids to try their luck at rollerblading, skating, dancing, or just walking around. It's got a bar/restaurant, shops, a library, a climbing wall... You can't miss it! Also why would you come all the way to Brest and not try the cable cars leading to les Capucins (only 2 euros)? That's madness!

Really worth a visit, it’s been my second time there. Really enjoyed it, but you should go in the morning when there isn’t such a crowd.

An excellent shortcut to the newly opened Capucins site. The view is really beautiful. You can have unusual views on the Recouvrant bridge, the Penerf river and the naval facilities around. Beautiful.
