Le Havre Unmissables

Le Havre is defined by its UNESCO-listed city center, rebuilt by Auguste Perret after WWII using innovative reinforced concrete. The skyline is dominated by the 107-meter octagonal lantern tower of St. Joseph’s Church and the futuristic, volcano-shaped curves of Oscar Niemeyer’s library. Along the waterfront, the Musée d'art moderne André Malraux (MuMa) houses a significant Impressionist collection, while the Hanging Gardens occupy a 19th-century fortress overlooking the Seine estuary and the city's two-kilometer pebble beach.
