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.

The stairs leading up on the cliff are taking not more than 10 min to go up, but better to be prepared. On the top, the great seascape is awaiting you. Get your comfy shoes on, take a windbreaker jacket (because it may be windy even in summer), it will be a long walk! The path leads you all along the shore, but be careful going down, the railing may be shaky. It is a perfect place to think and enjoy a small company since in the evening hours there is almost no one around.

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.

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. Loved this even my husband and 21 yr old son who are not garden lovers loved this trip. Well worth a visit will not be disappointed.
6. Musee des Beaux-Arts de Rouen

The Musee des Beaux-Arts at Rouen is one of the best provincial museums in France, so if you are in Rouen on a rainy day like I was (or even if it isn't raining!), I highly recommend setting aside a couple of hours for a visit. The Cathedral Notre-Dame in Rouen was a recurring subject for Monet when he lived in nearby Giverny, and this excellent museum displays one of these canvases, along with works by Gericault, Boudin, Sisley, Renoir, Caillebot, Delecroix and many others. The paintings collection is especially strong, but there are also many fine sculptures and objets d'art. The whole museum has a very modern and professional air. And it's free! Unbelievable for a museum of this quality.
7. 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
8. 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.
9. Eglise St-Joseph

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.
10. Palais Benedictine
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,753 reviews
The Palais Benedictine, an architectural masterpiece of gothic and Renaissance inspirations, proposes guided tours all year long on Saturday, Sunday, holidays (except May 1st, December 25th and January 1st), and every day during school holidays at 3pm. Discover the museum, the one and only Benedictine distillery in the world and the cellars. Eventually, enjoy the contemporary art exhibition, before heading to the Winter Garden where is offered a tasting of one of the three Benedictine Expressions*. Alcohol abuse is dangerous for health. Consume with moderation

The palace was really interesting, lots of beautiful things to see. We did the distillery tour and Samantha was brilliant - interesting, funny and very friendly. And you got to taste it at the end! A brilliant way to fill a few hours.
