It is the Château de Tourlaville (and not Nacqueville)

The original lighthouse was built in 1775 to protect the dangerous waters around Pointe de Barfleur, which were known for numerous shipping disasters, including the sinking of the "White Ship" in 1120. Since the first tower did not meet the requirements of the 1825 national coastal lighting program, construction began on a new, larger tower in 1829. Completed in 1835 under the direction of architect Charles-Félix Morice de la Rue, it replaced the old tower, which was then used as an optical telegraph. The new tower is made of approximately 11,000 granite blocks and has 365 steps—symbolizing the days of a year. It also has 52 windows (representing the weeks) and 12 floors (representing the months).

The old granite harbor is the heart of Barfleur and is still used by small fishing boats.

A beautiful little fishing village that is worth a visit.

Impressive lighthouse, possibility to climb and have a spectacular view

At the Vallée des Moulins, near Fermanville, you will discover a charming landscape where history and nature intertwine. This picturesque valley, which owes its name to the remains of old mills that once harnessed the power of the gentle streams that flow through it, offers a peaceful setting for exploring by mountain bike.

Great downhill track! Quite technical, be careful! 👍
