Dinan's Old Bridge (Vieux Pont) spans the Rance and connects the harbor with the historic old town. It was built in the Middle Ages and was the most important access to the city for centuries. After several renovations and partial destruction in World War II, it was restored.

Due to its exceptionally well-preserved cultural heritage, Dinan received the „Ville d’Art et d’Histoire“ award from the French Ministry of Culture in 1986. The old town is today one of the most important historical sights in Brittany and provides an authentic impression of life in a medieval town.

The old town is among the best-preserved medieval city centers in France. Its origins date back to the 11th century, when the city developed into an important trading and craft center due to its favorable location on the Rance. To this day, narrow cobbled streets, numerous half-timbered houses, and an almost completely preserved city wall with gates and towers characterize the historic cityscape. Landmarks of the old town include, among others, the steep Rue du Jerzual, which connects the city center with the harbor, the Basilica of Saint-Sauveur, the Church of Saint-Malo, and the Clock Tower.
