The car boot sale of the Amicale Sportive de Rimou

The Amicale Sportive de Rimou organizes its annual car boot sale in the heart of this small village in the north of Ille-et-Vilaine. Private sellers offer a varied assortment of second-hand items: clothes, toys, trinkets, tableware, books, tools, small furniture, and bric-a-brac. The profits from the event are donated to the sports club to finance activities, equipment, and travel for its members.

Rimou, a picturesque village in the Fougères hedged farmland

Rimou is a small village of about 600 inhabitants located 10 km northwest of Fougères, in the Fougères Agglomération urban community. The commune extends over a hilly hedged farmland plateau, between hedges, meadows, and small streams. The village center, grouped around its church and town hall, retains the charm of Breton rural villages. The surrounding Fougères hedged farmland offers remarkable landscapes, with its sunken lanes lined with oak and chestnut trees, and its proximity to the forest of Fougères, one of the most beautiful beech forests in France.

An authentic village car boot sale

The AS Rimou car boot sale is a human-scale event, in the tradition of Breton country flea markets. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, the galette-saucisse from the refreshment stand is a must, and the prices are particularly attractive. Admission is free.
