About Palace of Justice
The Palace of Justice (Palais de Justice) is one of the finest examples of civil Gothic architecture in France, originally built between 1499 and 1517 to house the Parliament of Normandy. The stunning facade showcases a unique transition from Flamboyant Gothic to early Renaissance style, featuring intricate pinnacles, gargoyles, flying buttresses, and elaborate dormers ordered by King Louis XII. The interior includes the magnificent Salle des Procureurs, a 48-meter-long Gothic hall with an inverted ship's hull ceiling that ranks among the largest preserved medieval civil halls in Europe.
