ドゥーブル-アン-オージュのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Beautifully integrated path, slightly off the busy riverside road.

During World War II, Mont Canisy was a strategically important point for the German Wehrmacht. The site was heavily fortified as part of the Atlantic Wall and served as a coastal battery to protect the Normandy beaches from an Allied invasion. Today, numerous bunkers, gun emplacements, and underground passages remain. Some areas can be visited.

Mont Canisy is a prominent hill on the Côte Fleurie in Normandy, about 4 km southwest of Deauville, France. At approximately 110 meters high, the hill offers impressive panoramic views of the sea and the surrounding countryside.

The chairs are the current eye-catcher.

There are really 140 steps - we counted them 😉

Mont-Canisy is home to the former coastal artillery batteries of the Atlantic Wall. The majority of the site is today a nature reserve but its 250 m long underground gallery is open to the public. Guided tours are possible in summer.

One of the highlights of this hill are the artillery bunkers and its 250 m of concrete tunnels including barracks and ammunition bunkers. You can enjoy a guided tour of the complex. Visit the mont-canisy.org website to find out the dates of the next visit.
