Arromanches The British artificial port at Arromanches was left alone as the main supply channel for all of the equipment needed by the Allied soldiers fighting in Normandy.

Longues Sur Mer The battery at Longues sur Mer is the only heavy gun battery in France that still has the original cannon in the bunkers, untouched since 1944.

Honfleur After a visit to Monet’s house in Giverny you can visit Honfleur, the other town in Normandy where painters lived including the French impressionist artist and friend of Monet, Eugene Boudin. Honfleur is the town that the impressionist artists loved, with the variety of colors and contrasts offered by the sights of Sainte Catherine’s Quay, the port and the town rising up behind.
 

Rouen Complete your day in the world of artists by a visit to this town, also much loved by Monet. The town of Rouen is quite simply a work of art in itself, with its medieval half timbered houses, religious architecture, the massive Town Clock and the famous who have lived and died here, such as Flaubert, Corneille and Joan of Arc.
