Eure is a beautiful department located in the Normandy region of France. It was established during the French Revolution in March 1790 and is surrounded by several departments, including Seine-Maritime, Oise, Val-d'Oise, Yvelines, Eure-et-Loir, Orne, and
Calvados. The department boasts a short coastline along the Atlantic Ocean across the Seine estuary and is the only department in Normandy that shares a border with the Île-de-France region. The department's (number 27) landscape is mostly covered by a wooded plateau, which is intersected by the Seine River's valleys and its tributaries. The altitude ranges from sea level in the north to 248 meters above it in the south. This diverse topography makes Eure a perfect destination for nature lovers and hikers who can explore the region's scenic beauty.
One of the main tourist attractions in Eure is Giverny, located just 4 km from Vernon. Visitors can explore the charming village and admire the picturesque landscapes that inspired the works of the famous impressionist painter, Claude Monet. They can also visit Monet's house and garden, which is now a museum and see the iconic water lilies, Japanese bridge, and other well-known landmarks.
Other important tourist attractions in the department include the Abbey of Bec, which is a Benedictine monastery that dates back to the 11th century. Visitors can explore the beautiful Gothic church and the surrounding gardens. Another must-see attraction is the Château-Gaillard near Les Andelys. This medieval fortress was built by Richard the Lionheart in the 12th century and offers stunning views of the Seine valley.
