Beauvais

The first thing you notice about Beauvais is the amount of architecture from the middle ages. The Cathédrale de Saint-Pierre is a classic example of this, and inside can be found an impressive collection of tapestries. A superb collection of paintings and landscaped gardens are located at the Musee Departemental de l'Oise. The Church Saint Etienne is another sight worth seeing. The city itself is ideally situated for visits to Paris, it is only 48 miles north of the capital.
