The Fall of Frankish Garrisons and the Ravaging of Le Mans

  • The Frankish garrisons in Rennes and Nantes, installed by Charles the Bald in 850, capitulate to Nominoe in 851.
  • With Brittany free of Frankish military presence, Nominoe turns eastward, launching raids into Neustria, particularly targeting Le Mans, which he ravages.
  • His campaign demonstrates Breton military strength, taking the fight beyond Brittany’s borders into the heart of West Francia.
