Over St. George Church

St. George Church is a church in Caen, Normandy, at Esplanade de la Paix. It is a worthwhile stop for anyone exploring the historic centre of Caen on foot, and a good starting point for discovering the streets around it.

Tips for your visit

  • Plan on a short stop of 15 to 30 minutes if you only want to see the exterior and take a few photos.
  • Check current opening hours before you go if you hope to see the inside, as access to churches can vary through the year and for services or events.
  • Daylight shows the stonework best, so aim for a morning or afternoon visit, and wear comfortable shoes for the surrounding streets.
  • Combine the visit with a slow walk around the neighbourhood rather than treating it as a single stop, since Caen is easy to explore on foot.
