Falaises d'Etretat

Reviewed By ParisianZee - Magor, United Kingdom

Definitely worth checking out. The walk up the cliffs is invigorating and the view on the Atlantic and the little town of Etretat down below is beautiful.

Porte d’Aval

Reviewed By KatrienS955 - Ghent, Belgium

Walking a bit further than the porte d'Aval, there is a second arch, through which the first arch can be seen, as well as the bay with white cliffs. Well worth the walk and effort! The path, all the way to cap d'Antifer is well marked and easy to follow. And the further one goes from Etretat village, the quieter it is.

Musee des Pecheries

Le Musée des Pêcheries de Fécamp a ouvert ses portes en 2017 dans une ancienne sécherie de morues, au cœur du port de Fécamp. Il regroupe des collections liées au passé maritime de la ville, ancienne capitale des Terre-Neuvas, mais aussi des collections historiques et de Beaux-Arts.

A great museum, you've GOT to visit if you're in the region! It gives you a very detailed description of the life the fisher-folk who belonged to the region led. It makes you grateful for everything you have and respect nature for what she truly is!

Excellent place to visit, we are so lucky this is available for us to visit looks spectacular, did a tour on bus was great double decker air conditioned coach with informative narrative on history and life of Claude Monet.

Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Rouen

This stunning Gothic structure is considered by some to be the town's most important architectural landmark.

Reviewed By Keeley2305 - Toddington, United Kingdom

Well worth a visit if you are in the city of Rouen, free entry Beautiful historic cathedral with plenty of information in other languages aside from French. The tomb of Richard the lionheart is inside, and statue of Joan of arc Tour guides can be found around the cathedral who can be very informative

Rue du Gros-Horloge

Reviewed By simply-peregrinating - Waddington, United Kingdom

This bustling street from the cathedral down to the market is a lovely one to walk on because of all the things to see along the way. Of course the clock tower is the main attraction especially when the sun light catches it and it glistens. There are plenty of half timbered buidings painted in various colours to see. The street does get busy especially near the clock.

Eglise St-Joseph

Reviewed By histoirem

The Église St Joseph stands proud in the centre of reconstructed Le Havre. The steeple rises like a lighthouse visible from land and sea. I would highly recommend visiting the interior particularly later in the day as the sun descends in the sky and light plays on the stained glass and colors the airy concrete structure.

Musee d’art Moderne Andre Malraux - MuMa

The first thing you notice about the Musée d'art moderne André Malraux-MuMa Le Havre is its breathtaking coastal setting. As you approach the spacious, light-filled museum building, Henri-Georges Adam's monumental concrete sculpture The Signal heightens the experience, framing a slice of the maritime landscape that inspired many of the works in the museum's collections. Le Havre has nurtured artists like Monet, Dubuffet, Friesz, Dufy and Braque. And MuMa is a pillar of the city's art history. Inaugurated in 1961 by André Malraux, then France's Minister of Cultural Affairs, MuMa is known for its late-19th and 20th-century collections. From the Impressionists to the Fauves, the museum's collections have been enriched by gifts such as works from the studio of Eugène Boudin and the Marande donation. More recently, Hélène Senn-Foulds donated an impressive collection built up by her grandfather, Olivier Senn, in the early 20th century. Thanks to the donation, MuMa's collection of Impressionist works is today one of France's largest, and the public can now enjoy works by Renoir, Pissarro, Sisley, Degas, Courbet and Corot.

Cathedrale Notre Dame de Evreux

Reviewed By jules62_4

This is a really lovely Cathedral with amazing ironwork and a new organ all in a setting with misericords and beautiful stonework. Considering how much damage it took in WW2 it is a must see, and right next door to a gem of a museum and art gallery housed in the Bishop's Palace with a car park right behind both . Well worth a visit.

The Clos Normand - Fondation Claude Monet

Reviewed By maryjanelk - Pleasant Valley, United States

We visited these gardens in Ocober, and I was was not sure if we were going to be able experience the beauty of the gardens that I had read about. Despite the time of year, there were many beautiful flowers. Monet designed the-gardent to be beautiful year round. There were only a few waterlilies in bloom, but the flowers surrounding the pond provided a perfect "frame" for my many photos. I would like to return each season to experience this artists living picture!
