Upon your arrival in Rouen, a visit to the Notre-Dame Cathedral is a must. This stunning structure exemplifies Gothic architecture and serves as the final resting place for notable historical figures, including Richard the Lionheart. Take some time to admire the intricate details of its portico, spires, flying buttresses, and other stunning architectural features that earn it the title of one of the most exquisite cathedrals in France.
Next, we can meander over to Rue des Chanoines, known as one of Rouen's narrowest streets, where you'll find classic Normandy houses adorned with unique half-timbered facades. However, the city's most famous thoroughfare is Rue du Gros Horloge, where we will marvel at the Great Astronomical Clock, a mechanism that has been ticking since the 14th century.
While exploring the historic heart of Rouen, we will also come across many noteworthy sites, including the impressive church of St. Maclou. Located in Place Barthelemy, this splendid structure is another remarkable example of Gothic artistry prevalent throughout the city.
To wrap up the private tour, our experienced guide will provide valuable recommendations for the top dining spots in Rouen, allowing you to savor every moment in the city!
