First stop - Caen
Caen is the capital and largest city of Basse Normandie. William the Conqueror and his wife Matilda built two fantastic abbeys and a castle in the mid 11th century on the bank of the river Orne.
Unfortunately Caen's historic centre is small due to extensive World War II bombing. This gave us a chance to visit the World War museum. A very nice one.
