Honfleur was first mentioned in 1027, when it belonged to the Norman Duke Richard III.

The ownership of the city changed several times during The Hundred Years War. In the XV century, there were French pirates - corsairs who ravaged the English coast. Later, in the XVII—XVIII centuries, the city became significantly rich in trade with the American colonies. After the port was closed, the city’s economy declined, and Honfleur became a suburb of Le Havre. Today it is one of the most known tourist cities in Normandy with 5.2 million visitors a year. The walking city tour takes about 1 hour.
