The heritage of Rouen at your fingertips

The Heritage and Wedding Days, 39th of the name, animate the entire weekend of 17 and 18 September 2022: a short tour of the “home” proposals, organized by the Municipality of Rouen on its territory.

Always highly anticipated, this weekend of visits and discoveries of all kinds is part of the theme of “Sustainable Heritage” this year. Or how to transmit, restore and install these places we visit in the great common narrative. Dozens of churches, mills, palaces and industrial sites to see during these 2 days, with or without a guide, according to your wishes. The detailed program can be found hour by hour (and also minute by minute) on the Agenda de Rouen.fr, but also on the Website of the metropolis of Rouen Normandywho coordinates the event in the area through its label Villes et Pays d’Art et d’Histoire.

Also in Rouen the program is dense, both in terms of Heritage and Marriage, in which the City is obviously involved. A brief overview:
