The face of Cherbourg is determined by the pier, which was designed in outline by captain-at-sea La Bretonnière. Construction began in 1783. The mariner sank gigantic wooden cones full of stones near the île Pelée and the Pointe de Querqueville. But the sea broke down everything that had been built up by human hands. Nevertheless, a kind of artificial island formed around the cones, the curvature of which was determined by the sea. Based on this curvature, a pier could be built that withstood the elements. Work was halted during the Revolution, but was completed in 1853. Napoleon I ordered the construction of the naval port which was inaugurated by Napoleon III in 1858. In April 1869, the first transatlantic passenger ship moored in Cherbourg.
