EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the ancient entrance to the picturesque town of Treguier, located in the Cotes-d'Armor department of Brittany, France. Dating back to circa 1909, this photograph transports us to a bygone era as we gaze upon the quaint quayside, lined with quaint houses and the imposing fortified gateway that once served as the town's entrance. The bustling quay comes alive with activity as fishermen unload their catch of the day, while merchants set up their stalls along the cobblestone streets, offering fresh produce and local delicacies. In the foreground, a group of pigs are being led to market, adding to the lively scene. Treguier, a port town in northwestern France, has a rich history that dates back to the Middle Ages. Its strategic location on the River Trieux made it an important trading center, and the town's fortifications were built to protect it from invaders. This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the daily life of this charming Breton town. With its colorful houses, bustling market, and ancient entranceway, Treguier remains a must-visit destination for those seeking a taste of authentic French culture and history.
