Étretat Essentials

Étretat’s landscape is defined by three massive natural arches—Porte d’Aval, Porte d’Amont, and the Manneporte—and the 70-meter Needle rock. These chalk formations on the Alabaster Coast served as frequent subjects for Claude Monet and other Impressionist painters. Beyond the cliffs, the town features the 19th-century timber-framed Les Halles, the Romanesque Église Notre-Dame, and the avant-garde Les Jardins d’Étretat. Literary history is preserved at Le Clos Lupin, the former residence of author Maurice Leblanc.
