Saint-Etienne-le-Vieux, a architect's masterpiece
Will arrive Caen area by trian from Paris for day touring of Normandy beaches. I can stay in Caen or any Normandy city where I can rent a car or take bus tour for the day. Questions:
1. Which town should I train to so as to either be able to rent a car OR avail of a bus tour?
2. Any B&B or similarly inexpensive hotel option suggested for THAT city or town?
Merci Beaucoup

Caen might be more practical although I love Bayeux. Caen is larger and you would probably find more tour options unless you wantouo rent a car. You might enjoy having a car since it gives you more personal freedom.

Have a great time; it's an amazing area.
Some say it is chaotic, others - like me - find it one of the charmes of old towns. The colourful variety in buildings throughout the city streets. Various architectural styles, that emerged throughout the centuries, can be seen over a few hundred meters of walking and therefore there is always something to your liking (or your disgus - hehe). Caen is definately such a town, that is wonderful to walk around in to see so many different styles and houses.
Every abbey has it's church. In Caen the Abbaye des hommes (Men's abbey) has it's highlight in the Saint-Etienne, with it's towers rising high above the roofs of the houses in Caen. I just had to seperately mention this most extravagant part of the abbey in this tip.
This is a fine collection,begun in 1809, it is much better than most regional museums due to its original donor sources:Napoleon and the Revolution. In addition an astute collector Bernard Mancel left his holdings., On its lower level it has an extremely large collection of excellent engravings by the greatest printmakers, also amassed by Mancel, which are on rotating view. There are also holdings of the other fine arts. There is no entrance fee!
