Brière (Breton: Ar Briwer) is the marsh area to the north of the Loire estuary in France at its mouth on the Atlantic Ocean. The residents of Brière are called Brièrons. The Brière marsh area includes a vast area of humid zones stretching from the Gulf of Morbihan and the estuary of the Vilaine to the north, to the salt marshes of Guérande to the west to the estuary of the Loire River and the Lac de Grand-Lieu in the south. Peat used to be harvested here.
The Brière territory extends over 490 km2 (190 sq mi), including 170 km2 (66 sq mi) of humid zone, at the heart of which lies the Grande Brière Mottière which encompasses 70 km2 (27 sq mi) and 21 communes.
It is rich in flora and fauna, and navigation is possible with boats called chalands.
Cottages are a common sight in the area, with around 3000 thatched roof cottages dotted throughout the area.
Alphonse de Chateaubriant's prize-winning novel La Brière (translated as Passion and Peat), 1923, is set in the area and describes its traditions and culture.

A deux pas de Saint-Nazaire, le marais de Brière est un espace où ne s’aventurent que les hommes nés dans ce monde entre terre et eau. Des éleveurs, des chasseurs, des pêcheurs et des coupeurs de roseaux. Ce sont eux les gardiens du marais.

Avant d'aller déjeuner à ce qui s'appelait à l'époque "L'Auberge du Parc", et qui allait devenir quelques années plus tard la Mare aux Oiseaux, nous sommes partis découvrir à la fraîche, les marais de Brière en barque avec la perche de René Moyon, guide agréé à l'Île de Fedrun. La visite de ce havre de nature vivante mérite vraiment de lui consacrer quelques heures, et surtout de réserver au préalable sa flânerie fluviale. En mars, vous pourrez observer la migration des oiseaux, en mai de contempler de magnifiques iris ...
More at http://www.brittanyholidayguide.com (Holiday Travel Guide) Once you reach the Loire-Altantique department, you know you have arrived in Southern Brittany in France (south Bretagne - Breizh). This is a land much flatter than the rest of Brittany, a land of rivers & canals with a Nature Regional Park in Grande Briere, a coastline of beautiful beaches with the glamorous seaside resort of La Baule and his dominant city, Nantes, Brittany's former capital. Small seaside resorts worth a visit include Le Croisic, Piriac-sur-mer, Saint Brévin and Pornic without forgetting the stunning medieval city of Guérande with its salt mashes. For more information on places to visit in Southern Brittany, your travel & accommodation arrangements, the festivals taking place and more, visit http://...
Une balade au départ du petit port de Bréca, celui-ci se trouve dans le parc de la grande Brière, et là, des chalands vous attendent manoeuvrés à la perche, et en route pour les canaux, ou roselières, prairies, et de nombreux oiseaux vous raviront, sinon vous avez aussi les calèches, tirées par des chevaux de trait bretons.
A la découverte des îles - Fédrun en Brière, aux portes de l'Atlantique La fête dans L'île aux oiseaux Posée sur une mer de roseaux, l'île de Fédrun est bercée par des roucoulades d'oiseaux et entourée de "curées", les voies d'eau briéronnes.Qui veut percer les secrets briérons doit se faufiler entre canaux et roselières. Valérie, batelière de deuxième génération, manie la perche avec vigueur pour faire glisser son chaland sous les saules pleureurs.Doucement, on approche des rives pour guetter hérons, aigrettes ou vanneaux huppées qui font étape au marais.

L'HISTOIRE RÉVÉLÉE DU CANADA FRANÇAIS, 1608-1998 Alexis Martin + Daniel Brière NOUVEAU THÉÂTRE EXPÉRIMENTAL, MONTRÉAL 23 + 24 + 25 + 30 + 31 mai + 1 juin ̷ 14 h Espace Libre Se réchauffer, voyager sur l'eau, se nourrir : trois révélateurs pour une traversée burlesque, inattendue et parfois troublante de l'histoire ignorée du Canada français. +++ Food, water travel and heating: three aspects "revealed" in this unusual, burlesque and sometimes troubling journey through the unknown history of French Canada.
Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by
Me mind being bent on rambling, to Ireland I did fly
I stepped on board a vision, and I followed with a will
'Til next I came to anchor at the cross at Spancil Hill
It being on the 23rd of June, the day before the fair
When Ireland's sons and daughters and friends assembled there
The young, the old, the brave and the bold came, their duty to fulfill
At the parish church in Clooney, a mile from Spancil Hill
I went to see me neighbors, to see what they might say
The old ones were all dead and gone, the young ones turning gray
But I met the tailor Quigley, he's as bold as ever still
Ah, he used to mend me britches when I lived in Spancil Hill
I paid a flying visit to my first and only love
She's as white as any lily, gentle as a dove
And she threw her arms around me saying, "Johnny, I love you still"
As she's Nell the farmer's daughter and the pride of Spancil Hill
I dreamed I held and kissed her as in the days of yore
Ah Johnny, you're only jokin', as many's the time before
Then the cock, he crew in the morning, he crew both loud and shrill
