## Area

The Préfecture area in Rouen is a central and historic area known for its administrative and institutional buildings, and plays a key role in the city's political and judicial life. Located near the city centre, it takes its name from the imposing 19th-century Préfecture de Seine-Maritime, which houses the local government offices and features neoclassical architecture.

The area features classical architecture, often Haussmann-style or neoclassical, with touches of modernity in recent buildings. You'll find stone-lined streets, quaint squares, and green spaces, offering a touch of calm in an otherwise lively district.

Despite its administrative nature, the Préfecture area is a bustling area visited by locals for various errands. You'll find cafés, restaurants, and shops frequently visited by civil servants, lawyers, and visitors alike.

Its proximity to historic landmarks like Rouen Cathedral and the Palais de Justice, along with its easy access to Rouen’s medieval streets, makes it a great mix of tradition and modern life.

The area is well-connected by public transport, including bus and metro lines, and offers easy access to the main roads—making it both a symbolic and practical location within Rouen’s urban landscape.

## Transit

Rouen's Préfecture district, located near the city centre and the Cathedral, is well served by public transport, offering several options for getting around in and around the city. Here are the main means of transport available nearby:

1. TEOR (Transport Est-Ouest Rouennais)
TEOR is a dedicated bus system that operates like a tramway on wheels. It crosses Rouen's main thoroughfares and links many of the city's districts. Several TEOR lines pass close to the Préfecture district: T1, T2, and T3: These three lines serve stations close to the Préfecture, such as Théâtre des Arts and Palais de Justice. They also provide quick access to other areas of Rouen and the surrounding communes.

2. Bus
Rouen has a well-developed bus network, operated by the Astuce company, which also serves the Préfecture district. Major bus routes in the vicinity include
- Route 8: Runs through the city centre and serves stops close to the Préfecture, such as Théâtre des Arts and Palais de Justice.
- Lines F1 and F2: These ‘fast’ lines link the centre of Rouen with towns in the conurbation, such as Le Grand-Quevilly and Le Petit-Quevilly.

3. Light rail
Rouen has a light metro line that crosses the city from north to south, although the station closest to the Préfecture district is not immediately adjacent. You need to go to Théâtre des Arts or Palais de Justice stations, which are a short walk from the Préfecture and provide access to line M of the light metro. This line serves the towns of Saint-Sever to the south and Boulingrin to the north of Rouen.

4. Cycling and soft transport
Rouen is also developing a network for soft mobility, such as cycling. The Préfecture district is well connected to the cycle network, and there are self-service bicycle stations nearby:

Cy'clic: Rouen offers a self-service bicycle system with several stations in the city centre. You'll find stations near the Préfecture, notably in the vicinity of the Halles du Vieux-Marché and Théâtre des Arts.

5. Taxis and VTCs

6. Pedestrian access
The Préfecture district is central and very pleasant to walk around. It is close to Rouen's main tourist attractions, such as Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Gros-Horloge, and the Place du Vieux-Marché, making it an excellent starting point for exploring the city on foot.
