REDON

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 969 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RAY-RHU
REDON , a town of western France,
capital
  of an arrondissement in the department of Ille-et-Vilaine, 45 M. S.S.W. of
Rennes
  by
rail
 . Pop. (1906) 5170. Redon is situated on the right bank of the Vilaine, above the confluence of the Oust and on the canal from Nantes to Brest. The
Church
  of St Sauveur, formerly belonging to an abbey, has a Romanesque central tower, square in form but with rounded angles. A fine tower of the 14th
century
  with a stone spire stands isolated from the
church
 , from which it was separated owing to the destruction of
part
  of the
nave
  by fire in 1782. The choir, with ambulatory and radiating chapels, forms one of the most remarkable examples of 13th-
century
  architecture in Brittany. The abbey has been converted into an ecclesiastical college. Some 16th-century timbered houses have interesting carvings. The
industries
  include the manufacture of emery and polish, agricultural implements and boat-building, tanning, brewing and flour-milling. The port is accessible at high tides for vessels of 600 to 700 tons. Redon
grew
  up round a monastery founded in the first half of the 9th century. In the 14th century
Jean
  de Treal, one of the abbots, surrounded the town with walls, of which a remnant is still to be seen.
