meeting place for locals! Graslin, which can be located almost anywhere in the city, thanks to the
85-metre (280-foot) tall white spire of its Basilique Saint-Nicolas — a neo-Gothic church built in
1854 Graslin Square and its theatre, is named after Jean Joseph Louis Graslin, a very important
public figure at the end of the 18th Century who extended the city centre of Nantes and built the
theatre.

The « Gâteau Nantais » is a specialty of Nantes from the 18th century. At the time of the triangular
trade, Nantes sailors from the West Indies brought back new food : rum, cane sugar, vanilla, … and
all these flavors that characterize this cake. These new ingredients inspired a fouacier from Nantes
who imagined a cake for sailors on long voyages
