Caen
Caen, capital and largest city of Normandie, remains impressive although it was devastated in 1944. The city that nine hundred years ago was the residence of William the Conqueror, is now a major administrative, economical and political centre. The city centre offers some new shopping developments, pedestrian precincts and two major restaurant areas.The pleasure port , at the end of the canal which links Caen to the sea, is where most life goes on, at least in summer.
