A
Église St-Maclou
This Flamboyant Gothic church was built between 1437 and 1521 but much of the decoration dates from the Renaissance. It is partly surrounded by half-timbered houses inclined at curious angles. The entrance is half a block east of 56 rue de la République.

B
Église St-Joseph
The city is dominated by Perret's centrepiece, the magnificent 107m-high Église St-Joseph, which was begun in 1951 and inaugurated in 1959. Its 13,000 panels of coloured glass make the interior particularly striking when it's sunny.

C
Abbatiale St-Ouen
This 14th-century abbey is a marvellous example of the Rayonnant Gothic style. The entrance is through a lovely garden along rue des Faulx.
