Quinéville

Listed as an historic monument, the Notre-Dame church dates mainly from the 11th century. The originality of this religious building is based on the presence of two bell towers dating from the two main periods of construction, with a first novel and a second from the 19th century. The first consists of a blind part surmounted by a sculpted sawtooth cornice.

Classic in style, the castle of Quinéville was completely rebuilt in the 17th century on the remains of an older building. The building has a facade punctuated by a central pavilion adorned with fluted pilasters with capitals. In the park, it is possible to discover an old cooler, as well as the Great Chimney. The latter is the remainder of a 2nd century construction and today benefits from a classification as an Historic Monument. The castle was notably occupied by King Jacques II in the 17th century during the Battle of La Hougue.

After a stroll on the beach, it is possible to go and discover a little more about the Battle of Normandy and daily life under World War II at the World War 2 - Museum. Created in the 2000s, it features living scenes and life-size reconstructions with civilian and military mannequins. Visitors immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the time, strolling in particular in a reconstituted street or entering a blockhouse equipped with an original cannon.

A summer market is offered every Sunday morning in July and August.

On August 15, it's time for the patronal feast with its mass, musical entertainment and even children's games.
