Rennes: Parlement

I visited the "Parlement" today in Rennes which is basically the court house of Bretagne. It was ordered to be built by Louis Xll in the 16th century according to the tour guide. So it's super old! Every door,wall, and surface seems to have some sort of design on it that is symbolic of justice, God, Louis Xll, etc. The details on the ceiling as seen in one of the pics below are painted with gold.
