We took a short touring holiday through Normandy and visited several places. Rouen was the first main stop on the tour. It really is a beautiful city with a long history. It also has connections with England as Richard the Lionheart is buried in the cathedral. Also the history of Joan of Arc is linked to the English and she was burnt at the stake in Rouen.

I was there last November and I was imprest: the old buildings, Joan of Arc, the new church, l'aitre ,... The pic you made give me good remembers. Mooi gedaan !
I'm glad to hear they are doing such a careful job of restoring the cathedral and the other historic buildings. I've never been to Rouen, but I love those Claude Monet paintings of the cathedral.
Lovely photos of the old buildings. I would reallylike to see the cathedral - it looks beautiful
Rouen is on my stop over list when I visit to France in September.
Rouen is a great place for english history buffs! A page well worth a Tip... Jase
Hihihi - now this is a real old page, but interesting for sure! Jeanne d'Arc AND Richard Lionheart, wow!!
looks like we should have not bypassed Rouen on our trip !
good page and photos
Nice city which I didn`t visit when I was in France.
Great page & photos....
