The picturesque cobblestone streets and squares of old Quimper are full of hidden treasures, from elegant townhouses to interesting boutiques and bars. Visitors should stop by the old Quimper Market, full of local Breton and produce, located in the Place au Beurre – the historic butter market. Also worth a visit is the Museum de Quimper in the renovated 15th century Bishop's Palace.
