About Rouen

Move to Rouen and enjoy life in the northwest of France. The city sits along the Seine and is known for its medieval architecture, impressive cathedral and strong connection to Joan of Arc. Deep dive into the history of Rouen or just enjoy nights in one of the many cafés. The city has a sizeable student population, which gives the centre a younger and more relaxed atmosphere than you might expect from a historic French city.

You must have an EU passport to apply.
