Rouen

Why go

Walk from Notre-Dame Cathedral past the Gros-Horloge and timber-framed houses to Place du Vieux-Marché. This sequence shows the scale and texture of a medieval Norman city that was once a major political centre. Joan of Arc was executed in Rouen in 1431; the market square gives that history a specific place.

What to look for

• The façade of Notre-Dame Cathedral
• Gros-Horloge above the old streets
• Timber-framed houses on the way to Place du Vieux-Marché

Useful to know

• Use the cathedral-to-Vieux-Marché walk as the core visit.
• Check individual monument information if you plan to enter the cathedral or other buildings.
