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.

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.

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.
