Normandy regional capital on the Seine, 1h25 northwest of Paris by rail — historically the medieval Norman capital (where Joan of Arc was executed in 1431) and Monet's painting subject (the Rouen Cathedral series). The Vieille Ville (the half-timbered medieval core around the Cathédrale de Rouen) is the walkable anchor. France has no DNV; long séjour temporaire visiteur or Talent Passport. Schengen. Roughly 40-50% cheaper than central Paris on rent with deep half-timbered architectural density and the Normandy coast (Étretat, Honfleur) 1-2h west.
