chapelle notre dame de la garde

Nice church on top of the cliff, fairly easy to climb up so a must see if your going to etretat. We went in the evening and lied on the grass outside -the view of the sea and skyline was lovely.

While in Étretat, it is worth stopping by and visiting this church at the top of the cliff. Though it doesn't have the glamour of some of the other churches in France, it definitely has its charm and history.

What a shock to discover that the original chapel (built by the people of Etretat), was destroyed by the Germans occupiers during the War AND it was sold privately so one one can visit inside or worship in this little chapel. Only on odd days during peak season. The Notre- Dame- de- la-Garde , located on the cliff in Etretat was originally erected in 1854 and rebuilt in 1950. It is in a beautiful location for people to see and enjoy the fantastic views and amazing sunsets.Walks around the cliffs are amazing too. Here are some of the routes to see the chapel1. - along the main path from the town of Etretat. 2. by Car. 3. Tourist train from the centre of the town -every hour from 9 - 6/7pm. Cliff walks: We used the little train to get us up there and then returned 2 hours later. During this time we walked quiet a way and took a little path down the side which led to steps. When the tide is you have to climb up again so not for the faint hearted.

This is the place to go early in the morning - the waves lap against the beach, seagulls squawk and the breeze laced with a fine mist reminds you that you are on top of such beautiful cliffs. Bring your camera, this is a great place for pictures of both the city of Etretat, golf course and the cliffs.

After a long drive from Belgium through the jungles and wide lands colored with yellow flowers, we didn't expect to face such amazing cliffs in the coast. It is definitely worth to visit this place. It is close to the Mont-Saint-Michel as well. Try the ice cream over there specially the apricot taste ;) one more notice, don't be surprised if you get back to your car and face tones on Seagull chicken-pee spread on it!! Anyways, the weather is amazing in April and if you be lucky, the sun weather would make your day unforgettable. Have a blast.

The views are amazing from the top of the cliffs by the chapel but do take a moment to look at the strange white spike! This is a memorial to two brave Frenchmen who died in a mysterious tragedy. Etretat was their last view of France. Nungesser and Coli were two pilots of a tiny plane attempting the first Paris to New York flight.More here with some pictures http://www.normandythenandnow.com/last-flight-of-the-white-bird-at-etretat/Enjoy your trip!

it was worth the hike uphill. the view is excellent. mass is on wednesdays and saturdays at 10am if you want to see the interior.

la chiesa di per sè non è niente di chè, ma questo è un ottimo punto per ammirare le falesie, ci si puo arrivare con l'auto, c'è anche un sentiero per scendere alla spiaggia (ma penso sia lungo e faticoso risalire)

Superbe site, nous y sommes allés le 05/03/2015, accompagnés de nos deux enfants 5 et 2 ans ! Ils ont adorés et bien grimpés les 220 marches. La vue est magnifique cette immense étendue , vide le stresse et les tracas du quotidien .

La vue sur le site est imprenable...sur les falaises d'Etretat...que du bonheur.Pensez au bonnet tres venteux

A picco sulla Falesia di Etretat questa piccola chiesetta rappresenta un vero gioiellino.Ammirerete la sua posizione e rimarrete estatsiati dalle Falesie che si gettano a picco sul paese di Etretat.Girate un po' intorno a questa bella chiesetta e vedrete anche delle bellissime mucche al pascolo e dei cavalli normanni bellissimi.

Très joli petite chapelle en haut des falaises. Très joli panorama qu’il faut quand même mériter car il y a pas loin de 300 marches mais le chemin pédestre reste praticable et accessible. Sinon on peut y monter aussi en voiture, il y a un parking à côté de la chapelle.

Un endroit agréable qui surplombre la ville d'Etretat. Un conseil, allez y en fin de journée, lors du couché de soleil, peu de monde et paysage magnifique !

Joli endroit ou l'on peut faire une belle balade et des supers photos, un très beau point de vue!!!!

A visita a capela vale pela vista, o clima e o vento que sopra constantemente. de lá seguimos por uma estradinha com casas lindas e fazendinhas.
