Congratulations to the builders, immense respect.

A surprising place... immense and imposing. The monks lived on the other side of the vast church. That part is gone, but the place still inspires silence.

a small flea market but with lots of items

A small village to absolutely discover

The beautiful, well-kept, and neat facade of this building might prompt a passing pedestrian to snap a spontaneous photo. Others head to this address specifically to visit the house. However, it's not an interest in architecture that draws them here, but rather in music. The famous composer Maurice (actually Joseph-Maurice) Ravel (born 1875, died 1937) lived here. The work that most people spontaneously associate with his name is certainly "Bolero." He wrote the piece in 1928 for the Russian dancer Ida Rubenstein (1885 to 1960). Ravel himself is said to have said: "I have only created one masterpiece, and that is the Bolero; unfortunately, it contains no music."

Right next to the lobby there is a bakery. They are used to welcoming cyclists. Everything is homemade, they are very nice. Table and chairs outside sheltered for eating. I've been there twice, never disappointed.

With a length of 62 meters and almost 20 meters of height under the vault, the Saint-Germer Abbey presents itself in all its beauty. Its plan includes a long central nave of eight fairly narrow bays, a projecting transept and a single-span choir followed by an apse with ambulatory and five (now three) contiguous radial chapels. The façade superimposes four levels: large porticoes, stands, rectangular openings that pierce the roof spaces of these and high windows.

Former residence of Maurice Ravell, who liked it here so much that he stayed several times in the half-timbered house Les Lauriers on Rue d’Enfer and was inspired to create compositions by cobblestone streets and typical Norman half-timbered houses.
