Title: When strolling through the old town of Honfleur, you will in..
Message: When strolling through the old town of Honfleur, you will inevitably pass the old harbor basin in the heart of the town (Vieux Bassin), in which the picturesque, slender fishermen's houses are reflected. The Lieutenance stands directly on the quay and watches over the old harbor basin with its corner towers. It is a remnant of the 16th century fort, then the residence of the royal lieutenant. Next to it is the Porte de Caen, part of an old city gate.
You can eat very well in incredibly cute restaurants and pubs. I always recommend, because I would almost die for it, a platter snack: cheese, cold cuts, butter, bread - that's enough! Enjoy a good glass of wine.

By the way - coming from the north, you can reach Honfleur via the Normandy Bridge: it is also known as the "harp over the Seine" and is one of the largest bridges in the world. On one side is Honfleur, on the other side of the Seine estuary, modern Le Havre awaits you. Especially in the evening, the view from my hotel La Ferme Saint Siméon over the colorful harbor of Le Havre is unbelievably beautiful!
