The Seine river

In Rouen, the Seine river is wide 2 to 3 km and deep enough to allow even large ocean ships to reach Rouen harbor. This is why Rouen is living along the river and the Seine has and had always, a main importance for the city.
Man had to help nature and began in the middle of the 19th century. For more details, look at :
