    Constructed from chalk and with an exceptionally intricate facade on the north side, the town’s cathedral has to be top of your list. It has been through a litany of conflicts in its time, which actually explains the melange of styles: After the building was almost destroyed in the 100 Years’ War it was remodelled in the Flamboyant Gothic, and ther...

    Attached to the cathedral by a passageway is the Bishops’ Palace, commissioned by Raoul du Fou in the 1400s. It’s a listed “monument historique” and was built on the Gallo-Roman wall. The palace is certainly impressive at four storeys in height, and contains the town’s museum. But before you go in give yourself a few minutes to survey the outside: ...

    Inside that spectacular episcopal palace is the town’s museum, mapping Évreux’s history and archaeology. There’s also a seriously rich art exhibition, with paintings from the 17th to the 20th centuries by Nicolas Maes, Boudin, Jongkind, Soulages and Fernand Léger, as well as sculpture by Rodin. Those archaeology galleries have a host of finds from ...

    It’s not often that you encounter a traditional belfry in this part of the country; in fact the Beffroi d’Évreuxby the water on Place du Général-de-Gaulle is one of France’s southernmost belfries, as nearly all the rest are in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region. This building came through the Second World War unaffected, and dates to the 15th century, w...

    Évreux’s ramparts were constructed in 275 to defend the city against raids. The total length was more than a kilometre and they enclosed an area of nine hectares. There are lots of little traces surviving, along Rue Saint-Louis, outside the médiathèque and on the path next to the Iton. But the most photo-friendly vista has to be from the kink in th...

    Take a seat by the central fountain on Place du Général-de-Gaulle and you’ll have magnificent monuments everywhere you look. The town hall is from the 1890s with a “Eclecticist” design. The fountain in front dates to 1882 and was a joint effort by the architect Charles Genuys and the sculptor Louis-Émile Décorchemont. It depicts a woman holding an ...

    This medieval church used to be attached to a Benedictine monastery built to venerate St Taurin, who was the first Bishop of Évreux and was martyred in the 5th century. The building was reconstructed in the 15th century, leaving a mix of Flamboyant Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The big story here is the reliquary of St Taurin, dating to the ...

    On the same square, this is another handsome building, in a Louis XIII-Revival style. It was completed in 1880 and was built to house Évreux’s museum, which moved in the Bishops’ Palace in 1959. Since the 1980s it’s been converted into a centre for art, with studios, classrooms and galleries, and hosting workshops for kids in summer. If you’d like ...

    This river has always been an indelible part of life in the town: In Roman times the walls were aligned with the course of the Iton, and later it was harnessed for waterfront industry, supplying dyers and tanners with water, and powering mills. One of these, the Moulin de Navarre, remains in good condition and still has its electric turbine, instal...

    Almost 2,000 years ago the Gallic Aulerques Éburovices tribe founded two cities in this area. Mediolanum Aulercorum became modern Évreux, while Gisacum seven kilometres southeast was more of a religious sanctuary. In the 2nd and 3rd centuries grew to more than 250 hectares before being suddenly abandoned. The site has been excavated since the early...
