The village of Ry, located in Seine-Maritime, is renowned for its rich historical heritage and unspoiled atmosphere. It is especially famous for having inspired Gustave Flaubert in the writing of Madame Bovary. Ry is widely considered to be the model for the fictional village of Yonville-l'Abbaye, the central setting of the novel published in 1857. Flaubert, who knew the Rouen region intimately, drew on local life, architecture, and landscapes to bring to life this village, which has become legendary in literature.
