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.

Urville-Nacqueville Beach

Highlight • Beach

A beautiful sandy beach, particularly well oriented to enjoy the sunset not over the sea, but in the extension of the coastline, drawing the outline of the first cliffs of La Hague.

Abbatial du vœu

Highlight • Other

The Abbey of Notre-Dame du Vœu (Sancta Maria de Voto in medieval Latin), is a Catholic religious building in La Manche, located in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin, rue de l'Abbaye.
Founded in 1145 by Mathilde l'Emperesse, it was regularly looted and set on fire before being abandoned and requisitioned during the construction of the military port of Cherbourg, and left in ruins. It has been restored for about fifty years.
The domain of the abbey is classified as Historical Monuments by decree of September 9, 2002 replacing that of August 20, 1913.
