Surrounded by popular cities, Evreux is a diamond in the rough for those interested in historical and architectural heritage. In this regard, the city is best known for its two most important monuments: Evreux Cathedral and the bishop’s palace.

Built in the 10th century, the cathedral is devoted to Notre Dame at Evreux. Located in the centre of town, its impressive architecture and imposing size are hard to miss. Throughout history, Evreux has faced heavy damage, particularly during the Second World War, but the cathedral is one of several monuments that have endured.

Camper van rental: Useful information for your trip to Evreux

The minimum age requirement for renting a motorhome in France is 21, though some rental companies may only rent to those 25 and over. If you’re under 25, you may be subject to additional daily fees for insurance purposes.

Normandy doesn’t have an international airport but renting a motorhome here may be more ideal than doing so in one of the larger surrounding cities where the demand for camper van rentals is much higher.
