Honfleur invites you to discover its picturesque streets and narrow, slate-covered houses. Untouched by the ravages of time, Honfleur has managed to preserve the evidence of its rich historical past, making it one of the most visited towns in France today. The town's international renown is due in part to the authenticity and charm of its cobbled streets, half-timbered facades, small boutiques, charming hotels and typical restaurants, but also to the diversity of its monuments and the richness of its cultural and artistic heritage. The Vieux Bassin and the Lieutenance are the symbols of Honfleur.

As a fishing, commercial and yachting port, Honfleur has a rich historical and artistic heritage. A city of painters and Impressionism, Honfleur has that extra something that makes it irresistible. On the Seine estuary, the changing lights of the sky inspired Courbet, Monet, Boudin and so many others. Even today, dozens of galleries and artists' studios permanently display classical and contemporary works.
