Rouen

I went to Rouen last Friday and I had a great time! Rouen was the home of Flaubert, boasts the Cathédral Notre-Dame de Rouen, and was the site of Joan of Arc's imprisonment and death. I really enjoyed the colorful geometric patterning that decorated the majority of buildings in Rouen and the amazing tart I ate at lunch, which was filled with the cheese and apples that Normandy is known for.

Tower where Joan of Arc was imprisoned.

The patterned buildings of Rouen.

Big church. I couldn't take a picture of the cathedral Monet painted because my camera ran out of battery. Bummer!

Skull engravings.
