Facts and practical information

The church of Notre-Dame de Caudebec-en-Caux is the main church of the town of Caudebec-en-Caux, in the valley of the Seine, between Rouen and Le Havre.

King Henry IV is said to have said that it was one of the most beautiful churches in France: "It is the most beautiful chapel in my kingdom". Indeed, this manifesto of the flamboyant gothic style and the beginnings of the Renaissance does not have a transept, as does Saint-Maclou in Rouen, a contemporary of this church, and which perhaps justifies the royal qualifier of "chapel".
