Text Box: Text Box: Pontivy
  Pontivy is made up of two towns wrapped around each other. There is the medieval old town with its tortuous streets and half timbered houses, and the geometric Napoleonic town. Twice in its history Pontivy has been known as Napoleonville (the town of Napoleon). The town is situated in a very rural part of Brittany known as the valley of the Blavet and the River Blavet runs through the town. The Nantes-Brest canal also runs through Pontivy and if you are taking a trip on the canal it is a good stopping off point.  The town boasts a magnificent 15th century castle where guided tours are available and a 16th century church built in the flamboyant style.
 
The surrounding countryside is replete with small villages boasting innumerable chapels of architectural and historical interest. There are well laid out walks and cycle paths for the visitor to discover the treasures of central Brittany.
