About Le Havre

Le Havre is a major port at the mouth of the Seine, rebuilt in concrete after the Second World War to plans by Auguste Perret and now UNESCO-listed.

Le Havre was founded in 1517 by King François I as a harbour on the Seine estuary and is still one of the main ports of France. Bombing in 1944 flattened the centre, and a team led by Auguste Perret rebuilt it in reinforced concrete on a grid of wide avenues, a modern town that is now a World Heritage site. Saint Joseph's Church, with a lantern tower more than a hundred metres high, anchors the skyline.
