3. Guillaume le Conquérant: Normandy’s Historic Heart
Dives-sur-Mer is famous for its connection to William the Conqueror, who gathered his fleet there in 1066 before sailing to England. The town’s medieval charm stems from its half-timbered buildings and historic market halls.
This specific place is part of the Village of William the Conqueror (Village Guillaume-le-Conquérant), a preserved area filled with shops, galleries, and restaurants celebrating the region’s rich history.
