The tower of a Christian church is usually crowned with a cross – symbolizing the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ – or a rooster – symbolizing the denial of Jesus by the Apostle Peter. In this chapel, dedicated to "Notre-Damé" ("Our Lady"), the viewer instead finds a gilded statue of the Virgin Mary at the top. From this prominent position, it overlooks land and sea. The builders surely understood this primarily as a sign of blessing the earth and water – and especially the people who sail the sea.

The church of Saint Anne was given to the priory of the Madeleine of Rouen by Richard the Lionheart. This old Romanesque church from the 11th century suffered damage during the revolution. It was burned and rebuilt at the beginning of the 19th century, but without its bell tower which would be erected later. The bell was suspended from scaffolding in the cemetery, which earned Bénouville the nickname of a village without a bell tower. The church retains some vestiges of its original construction and a baptismal font from the 12th century.

Latin cross plan with one vessel. A nave intersected by a transept. Ogival windows and buttresses punctuate the cut stone walls topped with a double-sloped slate roof. At the crossing of the transept emerges a bell tower crowned with a polygonal slate spire.
