| Beauvais Overview |
| Located 60 km from Amiens, Beauvais was also re-built after the devastation of WWWII, but apart from its very impressive Gothic cathedral offers little of interest to the average visitor. Should you want to break your journey in this city, there are a few sights that are worth looking at and Le Marignan on rue de Malherbe will provide and excellent meal. |

Cathedrale St-Pierre - An example of the religious extravagance of the middle Ages, the Gothic cathedral was designed to be loftier and more imposing than any rival.
The Church of St-Étienne - The magnificent stained-glass windows of St. Etienne glow with divine Renaissance luminescence that quite takes your breath away.
Galerie Nationale de Tapisserie - Behind the Cathedral St. Pierre is the gallery which is a museum of the exquisite tapestries for which Beauvais was once famous.
The Musee Departemental - Housed in the black-towered building opposite the gallery, and open daily (except Tuesday) this museum is dedicated to local history, archeology, and painting.
