ABOUT THE AREA
Honfleur is a city in the department of Calvados, in northern France's Normandy region. It's on the estuary where the Seine river meets the English Channel. The Vieux-Bassin (old harbor), lined with 16th- to 18th-century townhouses, has been a subject for artists including Claude Monet and native son Eugene Boudin. Nearby is 15th-century St. Catherine's Church, a vaulted timber structure erected by shipbuilders.
Wealthy Honfleur families built their multi-storey homes packed tight next to each other, especially around the Vieux Bassin, the heart of the port, where a front-row home overlooking the boats was a real sign of status. Although there are no longer any commercial ships or fishing boats in the Vieux Bassin (they are now moored to larger docks), it's not uncommon to see yachts there. Shops fight for space along the quays in this extraordinarily picturesque setting, while restaurants set up their outdoor seating across the cobbles.
The neighbourhoods on each side of the Vieux Bassin all have their own character. The neighbourhood to the east is full of interesting buildings including the Church of Saint-Etienne, while that to the west extends uphill to the splendid wooden church of Sainte-Catherine and Honfleur's main art museums. The neighbourhood to the south of the harbour is more low-key but boasts some lesser-known gems such as the Church of Saint-Leonard and the restored fountains.
Honfleur's beauty has long attracted artists, with works of art to be found in the town's many museums and galleries. Honfleur takes particular pride in its Impressionist roots - Claude Monet's mentor Eugene Boudin was born in the town, and Monet and his contemporaries would often set up their easels at the Ferme Saint-Simeon on the hill above Honfleur, to capture the beautiful light of the Seine estuary.
Visitors to Honfleur can easily explore the Seine Estuary for themselves by taking a stroll through Honfleur's public gardens to its very own beach, or visiting the Chapel of Notre-Dame de Grace to look out over Honfleur and beyond. Alternatively, take a boat trip out onto the estuary from Honfleur or even walk right up onto the Pont de Normandie bridge, which affords phenomenal panoramic views of the estuary from above.
