Dry dock

Highlight • Structure

A form of refit is an expression used in the navy which designates an artificial basin which can accommodate ships. In other words, it is a dry dock which allows the maintenance, refit, construction and even dismantling of boats. You have before you a very good example.

Basilica of the Trinity

Highlight • Religious Site

Where the 15th and 16th century basilica in Flamboyant Gothic style now stands, there was already a church in the 10th century. Note the gables and pinnacles decorated with leaf work and medieval animal figures like gargoyles. The square bell tower above the portal, named "Tour Sauvage" after architect Le Sauvage, was added in 1828. Inside, the gallery decorated with sculptures and murals on the north side shows a 16th century dance of death and on the south side scenes from the Passion. The baptismal fonts are from the 15th century.

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.
