Coutances Cathedral, with its towers and stone spires, towers majestically above the city, was rebuilt in the 13th century. Nevertheless, the Romanesque structure of the nave and the towers of the facade were retained and form the basic framework of the present cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture in Normandy. The building owes its fame to its outstanding elegance, the boldness of its lantern tower (the most beautiful in Normandy), and its magnificent medieval stained-glass windows (the largest surviving 13th-century stained-glass windows in Normandy).

It was in 1852 that a cut stone bridge comprising eleven arches spanned the Siena. A strategic objective for the Allies during the Liberation, its destruction was important to hinder the German withdrawal. A first sabotage attempt was made by the Trelly resistance group, under the direction of Roger Lemesle. It was bombed, for the first time, on April 23, 1944, without success, then regularly thereafter by four Royal Air Force bombers until June 14 and 15, dates during which three of the eleven arches collapsed. A "Bailey" type bridge was installed by the Allies at the end of July 1944 to allow the passage of Brigadier General B.C. Clarke's troops. This replacement bridge, planned for two years, will be used until 1967. A new bridge, inaugurated in 1967, will be built fifty meters upstream of the old one.
