France - Lower Normandy
Eugene Boudin Museum
A Karen Brown Recommendation
Honfleur, Basse-Normandie, France |
| Recenter Map To This Location |
Honfleur is a gem, its narrow, 17th-century harbor filled with tall-masted boats and lined with tall, slender, pastel-washed houses. Narrow cobbled streets lined with ancient timbered houses lead up from the harbor. Just up from Saint Catherine’s Square with its unusual wooden belfry, a tall bell-tower and bell-ringer’s home, standing apart from the nearby church, on Rue de l’Homme de Bois, is the interesting Eugène Boudin Museum with its impressive collection of pre-Impressionist and contemporary paintings by Norman artists: Boudin, Dubourg, Dufy, Monet, Friesz, and Gernez. There are also displays of Norman costumes and paintings depicting life in 18th- and 19th-century Normandy. (Closed Tues, tel: 02.31.89.54.00.)
