A beautiful market hall that offers only fresh seafood, we can only recommend it 😋

Always very seductive

It's just crazy how many types of fish and shellfish there are.

Impressive and massive cliffs/chalk cliffs.

Listed as a Historic Monument, the Notre-Dame church is a very interesting building that expresses some very characteristic features of the architecture of the Norman School, particularly in the Gothic choir attributed to the 13th century. The bell tower-porch has a late 15th century portal with an ogival arcade that frames an openwork tympanum. Above the portal is built a flamboyant style rose window. The nave, flanked by two side aisles, was built in the 13th century, but was extensively remodeled in the 16th and 17th centuries. It has an interior elevation on 3 levels. All that remains of the primitive Romanesque church is the base of the old lantern tower. Visible only from the outside, it is located at the crossing of the transept. The church has some singularities: -The sepulchre dating from the 15th century, representing Christ stretched out on a shroud, Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, Saint John the Evangelist, the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene. -The stained glass windows are attributed for the most part to Édouard Didron, a great Parisian master glassmaker.

The Saint-Denis church has several particularities: Its 12th century sculptures, which are of great artistic quality and represent scenes from daily life, the Bible and mythology. Its Romanesque portal, which is surmounted by a tympanum representing Christ in majesty. Its bell tower, which is surmounted by an octagonal spire.

"Beau-voir", the town would be well named: "Beautiful to see". The existence of Beauvoir is drowned in the mists of time, certainly in the first centuries of our era. The "Boutonnière" of the Pays de Bray is a depression 2 to 15 km wide, bordered on each side by more or less marked escarpments (cuestas). Soil erosion is uneven. Some points of resistance have given rise to witness mounds. (The Monts de Sigy, Beauvoir en Lyons..) In this depression, slight undulations create a varied landscape, composed of hedgerow meadows, wetlands, cultivated fields and vast forest massifs. There are clayey soils, suitable for pastures for dairy cattle breeding. On the summits and plateaus, the soil is made up of clay and flint, while the lowest areas are dominated by meadows and forests. The soil is very humid, with a ferruginous subsoil (thermal springs) and iron ore, as well as colored clays (ceramics) and glass industry linked to the forest. In Beauvoir en Lyons, the mosaicist Milan Uzelac has perpetuated the glassmaking tradition on the orientation table. (Orientation table 6 on the Route des Paysages)

Nice little town, with the cliffs worth a visit.
