Aerial view of Le Tréport
Highlight • Viewpoint
One of the drawbacks of Le Treport is that the coastal strip, which is attractive to tourists, is narrow. The rest of the place is more than 100 meters higher on the chalk cliffs. In 1880 the first proposal was made to build a funicular, which would connect the lower town with the higher parts. This met a lot of resistance. It was not until 1907 that the construction of the funicular began, which opened on July 1, 1908. The architectural style of the upper station in steel and brick was reminiscent of the stations Javel and Grenelle[2] in Paris. Wooden wagons moved up and down with the help of cables.
The project was a success in the first years, but as a result of the First World War and the subsequent stock market crash of 1929, the operation became less and less profitable. In 1941, a long-range gun was installed on the upper station by the German occupier, and that marked the end of the operation.
Between 1958 and 1982, the connection was carried out by a cable car with gondolas. This was a failure both technically and financially.
In the period 2005-2006 the project was completely renovated. The newly built lower and upper stations are now connected by an automatic operating system, with four cabins moving along the inclined track. The use is free .

Notre-Dame and Saint-Laurent
Highlight • Religious Site
The interior stands out for its size and balanced proportions. In the nave there is a beautiful organ of carved oak, decorated with statues (1614). The statue of Notre-Dame d'Eu in the apse chapel is attributed to one of the Anguier brothers. In the left cross chapel is a 16th century statue of the Virgin Mary and behind the choir is a reliquary with the remains of St. Lawrence.
In the second chapel of the ambulatory on the right (the Chapelle du Saint-Sépulcré) there is a 15th-century Entombment* under a flamboyant canopy. Against it you see a beautiful Christ of Sorrows (15th century). The crypt, just below the choir, is older than the church itself and has a pointed arch. Against the wall on the left you see the reclining statue (a giant) of St. Lawrence O'Tool (12th century). From the square behind the church you have a good view of the lower districts of the city and the Hôtel-Dieu. (Michelin)
