The style of the Normandy architecture is Romanesque and medieval, often with colourful strips or grandiose facade. They are usually built with stone or timber and have stunning structures!

If Mont St Michel is on your checklist, how can you just not visit the beauty next door, Brittany? Within an hour’s drive, you’ll be arriving at Saint Malo and Cancale.

Along the breathtaking emerald seashore, you can also enjoy the historic medieval town of Dinard and Dinan… It will definitely be one of the best holidays you would ever have!
