The Sunday Market!



The Sunday Market!! Its right at the foot of Old Town and the Cathedral looks down over the market. Lots of neat antiques and FOOD.
The fresh food looks and smells fantastic. At one point we walked past a women with a cat in a carrier and asked us if we were interested in the cat. She was quite possible trying to sell a cat at the open air market.




The Crown Jewel of Le Mans is the Cathedral and Old Town. The Cathedral was built over about 500 years, and the oldest part is from about 1000 AD.






They're working on restoring a lot of it actually. The last time it was restored around 1840.







The organ is huge and requires several people to play it.























































The rose window is 15 metres tall and 7 metres wide.
