Movies filmed in Haute Normandie, France

Upper Normandy, a former region in northern France, is now part of Normandy. In the capital, Rouen, the modern Church of St. Joan of Arc honors the site where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake in 1431. Rouen’s medieval center has half-timbered houses and the Gothic Cathédrale Notre-Dame. The Fondation Claude Monet in Giverny preserves the gardens where the Impressionist artist painted his famous water lilies.
