Obviously rebuilt given how it suffered during WWII. The Caen area is excellent for visiting D-day beaches and the host of related, high standard museums locally. For a self-guided rather than organised tour a car will probably be best!

Birthplace if William the Conqueror and bombs heavily in the push to liberate France and Europe. 30 minutes to Arramanche and the D day beaches and a great base for exploring. Friendly people and great food and beer.
