Fort de La Hougue is a remarkable historical site located in Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, on the east coast of the Cotentin Peninsula, Normandy. This fort is one of two defensive works designed by the military engineer Vauban in the 17th century, the other being the fort of Tatihou, located on a neighboring island. Together, these fortifications have been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008 as an example of Vauban's military engineering. Points of Interest: Architecture and Military History: Fort de La Hougue was built between 1694 and 1699 on the orders of Louis XIV, following the French defeat at the Battle of La Hougue in 1692. This fort is a classic example of bastion fortifications, with thick walls, casemates, and a complex network of defenses designed to resist attacks from the sea. The 20-metre-high La Hougue Tower is the most emblematic element of the fort. This tower served as both an observation point and a last refuge in the event of an attack. UNESCO Heritage: The Fort de La Hougue is recognised by UNESCO as a masterpiece of Vauban's military engineering. This classification highlights the importance of the site in French and world military history, as well as the exceptional value of its architecture. A visit to this site allows you to better understand the defence techniques of the time and to appreciate Vauban's ingenuity in designing fortifications. Activities and Access: The fort is accessible on foot from Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, and it is surrounded by coastal paths offering beautiful walks along the sea. These walks also allow you to discover the local flora and fauna. The nearby island of Tatihou can be reached by boat at high tide or on foot at low tide, offering a complementary excursion to explore another side of Vauban's fortifications.

It was rebuilt in the 16th century on older foundations, in a stronghold cited in the 14th century. It consists of ten buildings, including three mills, and a granite and blue stone dovecote with 2,000 balls. Its raison d'être is its positioning on the edge of the old royal path leading to the Hague, where this path moves away from the strike to climb the first cliffs. The legend attributes its name to a warlike episode during which William the Conqueror would have had his life saved by Robert Le Fort who protected him with his shield (it was then said a shield) Source: Wikimanche

This partly 16th-century country house with its strangely grouped towers was later built on the 9th-century foundations. Only the courtyard and the dovecote of the complex are accessible to the public. The labyrinth in the cornfield opposite the mansion, on the other hand, can be explored at will.
