A little about Le Havre.

Le Havre is a port at the mouth of the Seine or in French "la manche". Le Havre is French for "the harbour". Le Havre has always been the harbour port linking for Paris, with goods transferring there between ocean-going vessels and barges that go on to Paris via the Seine. Le Havre was very badly damaged during the war years. The reconstruction of the town was undertaken by August Perret using a lot of reinforced concrete. This project has led to the city of Le Harve being added to the world heritage city list..
