Cherbourg - Manche

home > regions > Manche > places of interest > Cherbourg

Cherbourg is first and foremost a port. Most of the town’s life seems to revolve around its seafaring traditions as does much of the surrounding area with tiny ports dotted along the rugged coastline which forms the Cotentin peninsula. Like so many other Normandy towns, Cherbourg suffered during the latter stages of WWII and today is not the prettiest of places.
