Giverny, Rural village in Normandy, France

The settlement extends along two parallel streets on a hillside, featuring houses with slate roofs and gardens filled with seasonal flowers.

Archaeological excavations in 1838 revealed Gallo-Roman burial sites, while plaster coffins from early centuries were found during the churchyard restoration in 1860.

The village church combines Romanesque architecture with Gothic modifications from the 15th century and contains the family vault of painter Claude Monet.

The village lies 75 kilometers from Paris and 60 kilometers from Rouen, situated at the meeting point of the Seine and Epte rivers.

Claude Monet first spotted this location from a train window in 1883 before settling there and creating his renowned gardens with water features.
