Eu (Seine-Maritime, France)
Eu nestles at the edge of the Côte d'Albâtre, between the forest and the sea. A small town with a history marked by royalty and aristocracy, it offers a compact center where monuments and shopping streets blend. It is easy to get around on foot to enjoy Norman charm and the nearby coastline. Eu often serves as a base to explore Le Tréport and the nearby forest.
Heritage and history
The heart of Eu is dominated by the Château d'Eu, a former reception palace now open to the public. The château houses the musée Louis‑Philippe, which notably recounts the king's stay and his era. The église Notre‑Dame presents an architectural ensemble visible from the central square. Facades and townhouses recall the town's former importance.
Nature and landscapes
The town adjoins the forêt d'Eu, a wooded massif suitable for walks, and is a short distance from the cliffs of the côte d'Albâtre. These contrasts — woods, chalk cliffs and sea — offer varied panoramas and accessible hiking routes.
Activities and leisure
Eu is a convenient starting point for walks or bike rides toward the coast and Le Tréport. The local market lets you discover Norman products. There are also cafés and tea rooms to enjoy the town's atmosphere after a day outdoors.
Gastronomy and atmosphere
Restaurants highlight Norman specialties: crêpes, dairy products and fish from the English Channel. Eu's atmosphere remains peaceful and friendly, between traditional shops and rows of old houses.
