The match against last season's third-placed side in Ligue 1 will be played at the Stade du Roudourou in Guingamp around 100 kilometres away from Brest. Kick-off is at 18.45 CEST on Wednesday, 23 October. Read on for travel tips from the Bayer 04 partner weloveholidays for Werkself fans making their way to France.
Guingamp

With the exclusive package tours from weloveholidays, Bayer 04 fans can fly to Brittany for the best price and experience a city break full of top level football and sightseeing. Guingamp not only attracts visitors with football matches but also with its special French charm, its rich history and its sights.

the Top Attractions in Guingamp

People counting their steps and food lovers get their money's worth with a walk through the charming centre of Guingamp with its well preserved half-timbered houses. In particular, the Place du Centre with its friendly cafés, restaurants and shops invites you to linger. There you can try typical French and regional specialties including crêpes and galettes.

A ramble through the city centre or a detour to the Basilica Notre-Dame de Bon Secours, the landmark of Guingamp, is recommended for all sightseeing enthusiasts. The church originates from the twelfth century and stands out with its elaborate stained-glass windows and its tower over 50 metres in height – the perfect spot for a photo.

Another historic highlight is the Prison de Guingamp. The former prison from the nineteenth century offers a fascinating insight into crime and punishment and prison life from bygone times. Today the building is used for cultural events but the original cells have been retained.

For history and nature it is worth visiting the Château de Pierre II. The historic castle dates back to the Middle Ages and is beautifully located on the banks of the Trieux river. The ruins of the castle invite visitors to travel back in time to the Middle Ages. The surrounding footpaths are ideal for an enjoyable walk in nature. An ideal place to appreciate the picturesque landscape of Brittany.

The Jardin Public de Guingamp is a perfect place to relax. This wonderful urban park offers a colourful mix of flowerbeds, a pond and shaded areas. The park is ideal for a pleasant walk, a picnic or discovering the green side of Guingamp before heading off to the Stade de Roudourou to support the Werkself in the Champions League game against Stade Brest.
