Port Racine

Highlight • Structure

Charming and colorful, this tiny port is worth the detour! It's a sunny spot at lunchtime, with several small wooden benches, making it perfect for a break. Please note: there are public toilets at the parking lot just before taking the stairs down to the port.

Gréville-Hague, Town Hall

Highlight • Settlement

The squat 12th-century village church of Gréville-Hague was immortalized by Jean-François Millet (1814-1875), who came from the hamlet of Gruchy. On a rock in the middle of the crossing in Gréville-Hague is a copy of a bronze statue of the painter.

Manoir du Dur-Écu

Highlight • Castle

Imposing manor house, made up of ten buildings with three mills and a dovecote, for architecture and history buffs, it is worth the detour!

Place Napoléon in Cherbourg

Highlight • Monument

The attraction in the colorful square in front of the port is the bronze equestrian statue of Napoleon by sculptor Armand Le Véel. Contrary to what the inhabitants of Cherbourg have long claimed, the Emperor designates the naval port and not England! The unveiling of the statue on August 8, 1858 had almost sparked a diplomatic quarrel between Napoleon III, who had gone to Cherbourg especially for the occasion, and Queen Victoria, who had been invited to the ceremony! nearby is one of the shipyard structures.

Quai de Caligny (Outer Harbor)

Highlight • Viewpoint

Take some time admiring the boats and views from the Quay in Cherbourg, from Quai de Caligny. These little boats are a stark contrast to the huge ferries that also dock at Cherbourg bringing passengers from Poole and Portsmouth.
