Sites Around Bayeux



Conservatoire de Dentelle (lace conservatory) is located across the street from the Cathedral courtyard. You can step inside to see lace makers at work. Lace making was an important industry in Bayeux in the 1600s.


Outside, look for the Adam & Eve carving on one of the wooden posts. This is why the building is nicknamed "The Adam & Eve House."


If you don't want to walk, you can take the tourist train. It leaves from the TI for a 35-minute tour through town--€6.


Join the locals in the early evening and walk the 2.5 km path along the Aure River. 


Start at the waterwheel behind the TI.




You'll find houses backing up to the river's edge.


Wash houses along the river.
