Evreux
Evreux is in inland Normandy in the Eure department of Upper Normandy, to the west of the Monet gardens at Giverny.
The town is pleasant to visit, with several planned paths through the parks of the town and along the banks of the River Iton helping you make the most of your visit. The region around the cathedral is the heart of the town.
It is the cathedral of Notre-Dame that is also the most notable highlight of the town, above all for the excessively decorated outside - from the so called 'Flamboyant' period of architecture - and for the stained glass windows.
The Museum of Evreux contains some interesting artefacts from the region dating back to gallo-roman times.
Interesting fact: Jimi Hendrix kicked off his first tour with the Experience in the town of Evreux, 13 October 1966 - an event commemorated by a plaque in the town!
