Normandy

Full of contrasts, la Normandie boasts magnificent stone cliffs, sandy beaches and rocky inlets along the coast. The rolling countryside is lush and green, home to dairy cattle and apple orchards, producing the region’s celebrated cheeses, butter, cream, ciders and liqueurs. Diverse landscapes, charming villages and towns with centuries-old, half-timbered houses have inspired generations of artists, poets and musicians. And they have born witness to a millenium of wars, from the historic battle of 1066 to the Allies’ D-Day landing of World War II. Perhaps its best known sight is Mont St-Michel, whose splendid church and abbey rise high above the sands and tides.
