City of Caen

Highlight • Settlement

Located only twenty kilometers from the English Channel and the landing beaches, Caen is also the City of William the Conqueror. This is evidenced by the imposing Ladies' Abbey, the Men's Abbey and the castle, all three built at the beginning of the 11th century.

Be sure to visit the Caen Memorial, designed to commemorate the Battle of Normandy. You will also surely enjoy a stroll through the small streets of the Vaugueux district, where Edith Piaf's family lived. There you will find many friendly restaurants serving traditional cuisine.

A marina to explore on foot or by bike. Very pleasant with its restaurants and its location right in the city centre.

The church of Ste-Trinité and the associated Benedictine abbey were founded around 1060 by Matilda of Flanders, the wife of William I, as a women's convent and consecrated in 1066. In 1083, Matilda was buried in the choir of the church.
