Sitting at this charming harbor and enjoying a good coffee, wonderful!

When we see a monument like this, which we also encounter here in Honfleur, we are accustomed to thinking first of the two world wars that shook Europe in the first half of the 20th century. However, the history of the memorial located on this site goes back several decades further: It commemorates the victims of the 1870/71 war waged by France against Germany. France's military defeat at the hands of the forces of the North German Confederation (led by Prussia), with the participation of the South German states, led directly to the founding of what was then the German Empire.

The Lieutenance is a historic building located at the entrance to the old harbor (Vieux Bassin). It is the only remaining part of the city's medieval fortifications. The building originally served as the residence of the Governor of Honfleur and later became the seat of the Lieutenant du Roi.

Beautiful old town directly on the sea with a beautiful marina in the city

The towns of Le Havre and Honfleur lie directly opposite each other, separated only by the Seine River. Until the 1990s, anyone who wanted to drive from Le Havre to Honfleur (or further) had to take a detour of almost 30 minutes over the Pont de Tancarville bridge. This severely hampered the development of Normandy for many years.

The place is simply magical. You should definitely stop by on your exploration tour. It's worth the climb up the hill.
