This medieval town is well worth a visit: old stones, artisan stores, pleasant restaurants, a stroll along the pier or from the top of the ramparts for a breathtaking panorama of the Bay of the Somme... It was from Saint-Valery that William the Conqueror set out to reclaim the crown and become King of England in 1066. Joan of Arc was another famous figure to stop off here. The abbey also played an important role in the town's history for almost twelve centuries, until it was sold in 1791. Since then, Saint-Valery's cobbled, flower-filled streets and the Bay of the Somme have inspired artists such as Degas, Victor Hugo and Colette.
