They had attached a lot of wagons to the small steam locomotive and the ride was well attended. But you can also ride along with your bike for quite a while. I can't say how often the rides take place.

Saint Martin's Church

Highlight • Other

With its gargoyles emerging from elegant flint and stone checkerboard walls, the St-Martin church stands on the square of the same name. Its very first construction probably dates back to the 12th century. It was completely rebuilt in the 15th century. Once battered by the sea, battered by the vagaries of history, the result today is a surprising building with multiple aesthetics. It is a unique building in France and a precious witness to time. As such, the church was listed in the supplementary inventory of Historic Monuments in 1926, then classified in 2022.

Cape Hornu

Highlight • Beach

Cap Hornu is a cape located near Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, on the south bank of the Bay of Somme.
The name Cap Hornu comes from the Picard word “hornu”, which means “horned” or “pointed”, and refers to the shape of the cape. The cape was also known as Cap Saint-Valery in the past.


The history of Cap Hornu is closely linked to that of Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, which was a strategic port and a medieval town that witnessed many historical events. In 1066, William the Conqueror departed from Saint-Valery-sur-Somme with his fleet to invade England. In 1431, Joan of Arc was imprisoned in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme before being transferred to Rouen. In 1568, a massacre of Huguenots took place in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme after a battle between Catholics and Protestants
