Sights The Gothic Notre-Dame Cathedral of the Bishopric of Sées, unusually large for a small town and architecturally exceptional, dates back to the 13th century; it was consecrated on September 27, 1310. It was repeatedly damaged during the Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) between France and England, so that it was re-consecrated in 1494. But it also suffered damage and looting during the Huguenot Wars (1562-1598). Extensive restoration work took place in the years shortly before the French Revolution and in the middle of the 19th century. The church building has been classified as a monument historique since 1869. Numerous furnishings are also listed. The canons of the cathedral once met in the Ancienne chapelle canoniale. The chapel dates back to the 13th century and was surrounded by a porch supported by wooden supports in the 18th century.

History In ancient times, Sées was the main town of the Celtic tribe of the Esuvier, who are equated with the Sagii; they were probably the namesakes for Sées. As coin finds etc. prove, the Romans were also present. Around the year 440, the town was Christianized by Bishop Latuinis. In the 9th century, the town was repeatedly attacked by the Normans; after they settled in the Duchy of Normandy, the situation gradually calmed down and the town developed anew from three settlement centers (Bourg-L'Evêque, Bourg-Le-Comte and Bourg-L'Abbé).
