Gros-horloge, one of Rouen's symbols, with the hour hand and the sheep, the city's emblem, represented several times.

It’s one of the town’s symbols. Remarkable first and foremost for its spelling, this building was in turn the town hall and belfry, of which a tower (1389) and a Renaissance pavilion (1527) remain, spanning the street via a low arch. You’ll find the town’s emblem - the sheep - depicted many times. On each side, a richly ornamented gilded lead dial is framed by two pilasters. You’ll notice that it has only one hand, the hour hand. The interior is a veritable time machine. Not to be missed.

Très beau Gros Horloge. Dommage que des informations ne soient pas placardé es pour raconter son histoire.

Such a beautiful and grand clock, it has been well preserved and looked after by the city municipality over the years. A very picturesque spot. This place is a must visit if you are in Rouen. Also, note that you need to visit in the day and night time to get picture perfect views of the clock.

Beeindruckend. Leider hat die Zeit für einen Besuch des Turms nicht mehr gereicht.
