Attractions and Places To See around Saint-Laurent-De-Brèvedent - Top 20

It goes about 1km uphill at a constant 6%, and on the other side about 1km downhill at 6%. And the architecture of the bridge is impressive, the view in good weather is great. I was very surprised that there is a cycle path, as it is perhaps 1~1.2m narrow, and only separated by a white line on the asphalt from car and truck traffic, which rushes past at 80~90 km/h. Certainly no cycling pleasure. And with the quite strong winds that can make you swerve, it's also not completely harmless. The cycle path is simply DANGEROUS. Next to it there is also an almost equally narrow footpath, but that is (at least) separated from the roadway by a curb. The crossing of the bridge is (would be) certainly a highlight of any bike tour, but the incredibly narrow strip next to the fast-flowing traffic makes it no real pleasure.

The cycle path leads over the bridge and is free for bicycles, but with trucks and cars rushing past, some of which drive very close to you, it takes some getting used to.

It is a very industrial landscape but the cycle route through is well surfaced and generally easy to follow

Be careful during the work. It is advisable to use the pedestrian path rather than the bicycle path.

Saint Valery is the monk Walaric who is said to have celebrated baptisms to the north of the village, near a spring. He was nicknamed the evangelist of the cliffs for having been the first missionary on the Channel coast in the 7th century. At the beginning of the 12th century, Guillaume Malet de Graville donated the Saint-Valery church to the monks of the Graville priory. On September 10, 1944, the village of Fontaine-la-Mallet was 99% destroyed during Operation Astonia intended to liberate Le Havre. Placed under the aegis of the Ministry of Reconstruction and Urban Planning, the reconstruction of the town was implemented by architects who participated, in parallel, in the construction of the city center of Le Havre. The church was entrusted to the architect Serge Zoppi. The first stone having been laid on October 25, 1954, the church, which is distinguished by its 31 m high concrete spire in the shape of wheat ears, was completed in 1957. The church has a single-volume nave preceded by a porch with a bell tower on the side. The building is traditional in its shape and regionalist style: the exterior facing is made of materials from the Pays de Caux (bricks and pebbles) while the design of the spire in the shape of wheat ears recalls local agricultural production. On the other hand, the use of reinforced concrete allows for the development of a modern aesthetic, of which the bell tower offers a remarkable example with its openwork lacework. Since November 26, 2001, the church, its presbytery, the staircase, the terrace and enclosure walls have been listed in the supplementary inventory of historic monuments.

Nice place to pitch your tent under the trees almost invisible from the road. At the water's edge, if you have a filter bottle you can afford to drink some but be careful: the water is moderately salty! Only drawback: the noise of the port but it is not relatively disturbing. With the accompaniment of the crickets, it makes a nice mix. In the morning, you can leave by the cycle path that passes there (there are trees between the site and the track)
