What to see in Rouen

Rouen, perched along the Seine River in Normandy, France, is a captivating fusion of history and modernity. Its ancient streets, crowned by the exquisite Rouen Cathedral, bear witness to centuries of culture. The city's vibrant present, with its bustling markets and gourmet delights, beckons visitors to explore its timeless charm.

Begin your exploration with a visit to the magnificent Rouen Cathedral, also known as Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen. This masterpiece of Gothic architecture has enchanted visitors for centuries and is famously depicted in Claude Monet's iconic series of paintings. As you approach the cathedral, you'll be struck by its soaring spires and intricate facade. Inside, the cathedral is a sanctuary of awe-inspiring beauty, with its towering nave, stunning stained glass windows and intricate stone carvings. The ethereal light that filters through the stained glass creates a mesmerising play of colours and shadows, adding to the cathedral's mystique.

For a unique and captivating journey through history, visit the Musée Le Secq des Tournelles, which is located in a stunning 15th-century Gothic church near the Rouen port. This museum is home to one of the world's most impressive collections of wrought ironwork, showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship of centuries past. As you wander through the museum's halls, you'll be immersed in a world of intricate iron gates, ornate locks and artistic creations forged by skilled artisans. The collection spans from medieval times to the 19th century, providing a fascinating insight into the evolution of ironwork styles and techniques.

After immersing yourself in history and culture, it's time to savour the culinary delights of Normandy at Place du Vieux-Marché, a lively square near the Rouen port. This historic market square is not only a hub of gastronomy but also a place infused with history, as it was the site of Joan of Arc's execution in 1431. Today, the square is adorned with charming cafes, restaurants and market stalls where you can sample the region's delectable specialities. Be sure to try the creamy Camembert cheese, buttery croissants and the famous apple-based products, such as cider and Calvados.
