Rennes (metro population ~600,000) is the capital of Brittany, in France. In 1720 a large fire destroyed about half the city, which was almost entirely half-timbered buildings on narrow, tangled streets. The burned area was cleared and rebuilt with a grid plan and stone buildings, but a good deal of the original medieval-Renaissance town remains. For example:
