Holidays in Rouen
Upper Normandy Regional Centre and Primorsky Sen Department. Ruan was founded on the site of the old Roman settlement of Rotomagus. In VX, a small village, in X-XIII Vv, is the capital of Normandy. Ruan was severely destroyed during the Great France Revolution, and a large part of the urban budget is now under way to maintain the architectural heritage. The birth of Mapassan writers, Flora and Morois. It is located on both sides of the Seine, one of its radius, in a vice hill. The North Bank is a historical centre, the South serves as an industrial margin.
So far, history has not found anything else to celebrate this city to make Jeanne d'Ark's name out. So far, the most significant event for France was here on May 30, 1431, in a market area. On this day, the fire of the fire of an English-made fire has for ever made a young sheet from Lotaringia a legend of national importance.
The fact that Ruan became the place where the world ' s first auto races (until Paris) took place in 1894 does not outweigh. Mapassan tried to reinvigorate the interest of Ruan with his story "The Pear," but this good patriot prostitute is just a literary character!
In Ruan, three supersites, all focused on the historical center of the city. The Notre Dame Cafeteria (launched in 1063, main buildings in the 13th to 15th, the nineteenth century) is a monumental bulb with the highest helmet in Europe (basic height 152 m), supersite No. 1. This cathedral doesn't look like two-faced Notre Dames in Picardia and Paris. This purely British creativity reminds us of the land that Normandy was in the early Middle Ages. The first Norman Duke of Rollo, who died in 933 and who, in fact, was the capital of his State, the English King Henry P, and the heart of King Richard ' s English, is buried inside the building. As we know, he had a lion. Pay attention inside also to the Lecture of Book vendors. The gathering often painted Claude Monet, who grew up in Ruan, and thus made a significant contribution to the promotion of the building.
The market area from the fence is the narrow pedestrian street of Gross-Orl (rue du Gros Horloge). It can be considered the second supersite of the capital of Upper Normandy. Inclined stripper(s)
The Gros-Orly Medieval Arca (Hour Bow XIV in.) hangs over a single street. Giant cypherblat, the shooter shows the clock, what day it is today can be found to look at the bottom of the window; people who are concerned about the status of the Moon phases are all the attention of a bull morde who hangs right above the arch, under the cypherblat. In the eyes of the bull, you'll find all the information you need.
The Old Market (Place du Vieux Marche) is the third supersite of the city. The place of execution of Jeanne is the fifth of the earth in the middle of a small flower. The table is tall (20 m), but a humble cross and a memorial plate. The flower is adjacent to the Church of Jeanne d'Ark. It was built in 1979 by an architect, Louis Arretsch, and it's very unusual in shape. It's hard to describe. Some sort of inverted iron designs that sometimes seem to be here, not to the city. Gides claim that the church is built in the form of an overturned boat and that there was a different temple that destroyed the bombs. The church windows, by the way, are like fish.
The area is built in old-fashioned houses, as it is. Among them is the oldest restaurant in France, La Couronne, opened in 1345. It's a fine four-storey blackout, painted with flowers on the windows. Firm dishes - porch baran legs, Norman souffle and rubber duck, different from the fact that birds have bones in preparation, local bank located in Burteruld (Hotel de Boiirgthcroulde) of the fifteenth century, and Jeanne D'Supposia Museums (normal)
Two more Rowan Gothic Churches, if not supersites, are close to them. It's St. Maklu (1437-1524, rubber doors XVI in the vicinity; the cemetery of the victims of the plague is on the way from the fence to the market square) and St. Wen (planned in 1318, built around 100 years, huge in size, two bulbs of 82-metre towers, a litter of XIV-XVI sculptures). The end statue of Napoleon is painted in front of the rat.
Ruan's Museum is worth a visit, butIn general, the collections are increasingly middle-level. In the Mouse of Fine Arts of Veroneze, Karavajo, Belaskes and Pussen, there are not the best samples, but there are many paintings of Monet on the subject of the Romanian cathedral; Russian Icons XVI are also present and Dufi's wallwritten for the exhibition in the Shayo Palace in 1937. The Ceramic Museum is in the opposite direction. And here at St. Laurent's church is a metal museum. This is the world's largest collection of kinds: alien locks, slicks, alcohol staircases, torture instruments.
Jeanne d'Ark, a narrow and tall, like a pencil, is all that's left of the Phillip-August of the thirteenth century. In Jeanne's tower, he spent the last night before he was executed, and the English were questioned and tortured. The Bashny, truthfully, was built in the nineteenth century (the castle was completely destroyed in the Second World War, and then the tower was specially rebuilt on the resources of the city to remember Jeanne).
The University of Upper Normandy is in Ruan. It has been in operation since 1966, the main body is located in the northern suburb of Mon-Saint-Aignan. There are river ports and many industrial enterprises (textille, chemistry, electrical equipment, oil, clothing, paperwork. Sena's navigation is about a marine museum. In order to facilitate the communication of the northern and southern coasts of the city, a speed tram was launched in 1994 (underground the city).
In the west of the Cantel (Canteleu), the castle XVII-XVIII vv and the house of Croissé (formerly Gustave Flora, where a writer ' s museum is organized). Flober was a confident housekeeper and worked at night. The light in his window served as a beacon for the Skipers of the ships that sailed on Sena.
