Rouen is a must

Also a proud and imposing church not far from the cathedral.

This ancient cemetery is fully preserved and a testimony to the deadly epidemic that has ever haunted.

A beautiful example of Gothic architecture.

You can still see the scaffolding after the tower was rebuilt after a fire.

Saint-Maclou Church

It is one of the most famous Gothic church buildings in the world, thanks to Claude Monet, and can be seen in several of his paintings. It was destroyed by the Vikings in 841 and by Allied bombs in 1944. It has been rebuilt time and again, undergoing 700 years of architectural development. Its west façade is particularly worth seeing. By the way: its church tower is the highest in France.

A jewel of flamboyant Gothic architecture, its façade, a veritable stone lace, gives a real impression of grace and lightness. The church was badly damaged during the bombings of World War II, but the five-sided porch with its tympanum and carved wood wings, a Renaissance masterpiece, remained intact.
