Wide choice of contemporary books and objects by French designers.
The bookstore gives pride of place to books that feature the artists being exhibited, photography, architecture, graphic design, comics, children’s lit, novels, essays… whatever tickles our publishers’ fancy. Items crafted by French designers are also showcased: posters, postcards, stationery, decorative items, and more. The bookstore also offers a monthly programme of events: book signings, workshops, exhibitions, meetings with authors, artists, and publishers.

Nantes is transforming
Nantes has been getting a major makeover since 2024.
The city is currently undergoing extensive public works, particularly around Île de Nantes (Quai de la Fosse and the Pont Anne-de-Bretagne bridge). Tram Line 1 will be temporarily suspended from mid-June to late August 2026. The city centre and Parc des Chantiers – Machines de l’Île will remain accessible, thanks to replacement buses and to the pedestrian and cycling routes that will continue to be open. Park-and-ride facilities are available to drivers.
