Honfleur, the Wooden Saint Catherine's Church

In the heart of the harbor town of Honfleur, as you walk through the crowd, you will come across the serene Saint Catherine's Church.

This old church, built not with stone but with wood, exudes a warm feeling from its exterior. Upon entering, the ceiling, resembling an inverted ship, immediately catches your eye.

Learning that it was crafted by shipbuilders makes each grain of wood feel even more precious. Though small, the space is reverent and tranquil, yet profoundly moving.

The alleys imbued with the scent of the sea and this wooden church make Honfleur even more beautiful and unique.
