Le Havre (named after the French port ) is a board game by Uwe Rosenberg for one to five players. The German language edition was published by Lookout Games in October 2008 . The player has the task of erecting buildings and ships. He has to invest economically, earn play money and bring in food to ensure supplies.

Similar to Agricola or Puerto Rico , the players compete for different options in each round. In addition, there is comparatively little interaction. Le Havre is aimed at advanced players. The playing time is 100 to 200 minutes. The game can be played together or individually.
