The Bout-du-Quai is one of the oldest districts of Dieppe, where one can detect the traces of an important heritage.

One of the oldest districts of Dieppe. If today the development of tourism has made it a little less authentic, you can still detect traces of an important heritage. The rue des Cordiers, the rue des Veulets or the place du Moulin-à-Vent have a large number of half-timbered houses, classified as Historic Monuments, which predate the great fire that ravaged the town in 1694. The Bout-du-Quai was formerly a fishermen's district, as shown by the many virgins on the facades of the houses, evidence of a lively popular cult.

Mon quartier le bout du quai place du moulin a vents
Bonjour Je suis née a dieppe et j ai grandi au bout du quai tous comme mes parents. 1èr appartement rue des bonnes femme et après 2 eme appartement place du moulin a vent. Mes grands parents maternelle etait rue descelier et les paternelle place du moulin a vent aussi. Au dessus de la charcutiere Mme Levasseur et je me rappel du pain de Mme Biurday. Et oui c etait la bonne époque les années 1970. Je suis née en 73. C etait beau il y avait la scierie aussi derrière ça sentais bon. J avais une petite copine qui s appelait Ingrid. Le quartier était vivant et reflétait bien ce qu était Dieppe et ses marins. Je pourrais en écrire des pages je crois. L ecole. La plage. Le marché et le port.....

Exemple type de gentrification. Les habitants locaux ont été poussé hors du quartier au profit du secteur touristique. D'authentique il ne reste finalement que les sculptures et quelques façades.

I was born in Bout-du-Quai and I knew it actually magnificent, very busy and very popular. Note that it is not for a long time longer a fishing area. The district - particularly Quai Henri IV - were transformed into a tourist area. Many shops are inside the district disappeared and space, beyond the tourist appearance, became residential. Where the fishermen?

All changes, and it is very normal, but of grace, no postcards and images of Épinale. Le Bout-du-Quai it is definitely very well, but it is " today; somewhat " different from what is marked. There is no " traditionnellement" adverb (which, moreover, does not mean much). If you want that there are sailors, pay observers to sit in the four corners of the district with striped t-shirts, a cape and a pipe in the mouth. I also recommend the figure of the corsair or the pirate with its wooden leg and its parrot. I hope Antonio Balidar (and yes, today, it is not Surcouf) me not lily, it could be avenged for the foot of the darkness.

For the historic heritage, I confirm, it is well that. Regarding efforts to develop tourism, I also subscribe. It is certainly a beautiful area, but it really evolved. There are for example two types of Place du Moulin-à-Vent (beautiful, it is true): that of the Mill before and after the Mill.
