HOMO ROUSSEL
Read moreFounded more than a century ago, and more specifically in 1864, the now celebrated merceria Homo Roussel of Rue du Gros Horloge is one of the last and oldest of the city of Rouen. But you'll find it now on the Bear Street, in a beautiful, timeless house. The institution is passed from generation to generation and, with a precise idea or simply for the pleasure of strolling there, the arms are always loaded with small treasures, buttons, ribbons, bosses, gallons… no element of merceria is lacking.
