Many people told me that France is very romantic. How to go to Nantes?

It was originally a Celtic tribal town and was later conquered by Caesar. - In the Middle Ages, the people of Nantes had long fought with Rennes for the sovereignty of the Brittany Peninsula. In 1532, Nantes was officially incorporated into the Kingdom of France and became a duchy in 1560. - In 1598, the King of France issued the Edict of Nantes here, ensuring religious tolerance by law for the first time. - In the 18th century, Nantes was the largest slave trading center in France, and the slave trade made it a wealthy city. - During the French Revolution, the Nantes Revolutionary Committee was suppressed; during World War II, it was occupied by Germany and partially destroyed, but was rebuilt on a large scale after the war. - In the late 20th century, Nantes' industry emerged and its port developed, complementing the port of Saint-Nazaire.
