Le Havre, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005, stands as a testament to modernist architecture and the resilience of urban planning. The city was extensively rebuilt by Auguste Perret after World War II, using concrete in innovative ways that transformed its identity. This reconstruction is not only a showcase of Perret's architectural genius but also a symbol of 20th-century urban development strategies. Visitors can explore the unique concrete architecture and understand the historical significance of this port city through landmarks like the Church of St Joseph and the Avenue Foch.
