This 12th-century castle, which used to be on the harbor, is one of the oldest castles in Normandy. It is one of the few medieval fortifications that has been preserved. The former outpost of the fortifications of Coutances is named after the 11th-14th century owners of the castle. The lords of Pirou were related to the house of De Hauteville, to which belonged several founders of the Norman kingdom in Sicily. Until the end of the 18th century, the castle belonged to various noble families, before it became an important smugglers' nest and was finally converted into a farm in the 19th century.
