First mentioned in 1027 under Norman Duke Richard III, the city changed hands several times during the Hundred Years’ War. In the 15th century, French corsairs raided the English coast from here. By the 17th and 18th centuries, Honfleur prospered through trade with the American colonies. After the port’s closure, the city’s economy declined, and it became a suburb of Le Havre. Today, it is one of Normandy’s most popular tourist destinations. The walking tour lasts about an hour.
