Honfleur harbour, Best of France



Firstly used by Vikings and later on officially a harbor due to expeditions from France to Quebec this harbor is, indeed, a major attraction in France.

It was remodeled in 1681 and it is known that in year 1881 around 350 000 people came or left the harbor giving it a high-importance status.

La Lieutenance is a stone building located at the entrance of Henfleur Harbor. This beautiful harbor displays a magnificent view of both wooden and stone houses. It worked as a traffic point between France and England/Norway and it helped transport different types of groceries, horses, people and others.
