Is Rennes Safe for Women?

Rennes is a city with lots of students, i’d say the days Rennes is the least safe when there’s protests bc the police can get pretty violent. There are a few neighborhoods where drug related violence has been increasing but I live close to one of the hotspots and cross there a lot and have never felt unsafe

It depends on the day, the time of day, and the places you go; it's like everywhere else, there are places you should avoid and others where you feel good and safe. In any case, avoid walking around alone at night if you are a woman.

DONT WALK ALONE IN THE NIGHT IN ST ANNE, KENNEDY OR REPUBLIQUE !! Otherwise it's mostly fine and I've never been bothered anywhere else but these places above.

Rennes is a small town, public transport are safe I’ve never had a problem walking in the street, even at night As a woman, I still feel worried about man, but it’s not only in Rennes, it’s everywhere

It is safe, just avoid some streets at night. The people there are very nice and friendly. Public transport is safe and the police is always nice with us. Don't know what to say more... There is a subway and many bus.

Solo travel

I loved this city! My trip was charming and full of joy. I can say I found a part of myself in Rennes. Plus, the food was really awesome. If you have the chance to visit this city, I highly recommend Bretané; it's a restaurant decorated with beautiful mosaics.
