Bayeux is a magical town filled with French history. The city miraculously survived the Second World War and is a remarkable example of architectural heritage. Each stop has its beauty, including its half-timber houses, impressive cathedrals or town mansions. Admire the Bayeux Cathedral, over 900 years old, a piece of Norman-Romanesque-Gothic architecture. Stroll around the town centre along the banks of river Aure and admire some very nice views, old stone houses and waterwheels.
