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.

Un symbole de la ville de Rouen, présent sur toutes les cartes postales. De nombreux détails à observer à l'extérieur, et la visite de l'intérieur permet d'en découvrir de nombreux autres.

Emblematic monument of Rouen. I haven't had an opportunity to visit the interior yet, but just outside is very nice. Take a big look.

J'ai beaucoup aimé la visite du Gros Horloge, on en apprend beaucoup sur la ville de Rouen et son histoire. Ainsi que sur les moeurs de nos ancêtres et leur rapport au temps. De plus, le musée offre une jolie vue sur la ville et en particulier sur la cathédrale

Un des symboles de la ville de Rouen qui se situe dans la principale rue piétonne de la ville.
Il faut prendre le temps d'admirer les détails aussi bien de chaque côté que sous l'horloge.

Le Gros Horloge est un symbole de la ville de Rouen. Nous l'avions toujours apprécié d'extérieur, mais une fois faite la visite de l'intérieur, nous pouvons que la recommander. Très intéressante !
