DID YOU KNOW ?

The « rue du 31 août 1944 » (ex-rue du Catelier), where Be IN Saint-Saëns is located, is so-called because it commemorates the day Saint-Saëns was liberated. On the 31rst of August 1944, the Canadian soldiers freed Saint-Saëns from four years of German occupation. From the guest house Be IN Saint-Saëns, you can perfectly see the town church. It was built at the end of the 19th C in neo-roman style. Lucien Lefort (1850-1916) is the architect who built it. Its architecture is inspired from the Abbatiale Saint-Georges de Boscherville. It was constructed upon another building dating back from the 11th C, and then demolished in 1896. A few beautiful stained-glass windows classified national heritage dating back from the 14th and 16th C remain.
