Isigny-sur-Mer, Commune in Calvados department, Normandy, France.
This Norman commune stretches across 161.44 square kilometers along the Baie des Veys estuary, where four rivers converge into the sea near the Cotentin Peninsula coastline.
The town was heavily damaged during World War II with over 60% destruction from bombardments on June 8, 1944, but was later reconstructed after liberation.
The community celebrates its maritime heritage through traditional hymns like 'Caïeu d'Isigny' composed in 1869, honoring local sailors and fishermen from the Hogues quarter.
The commune operates under postal code 14230 and expanded on January 1, 2017, by merging with neighboring villages including Castilly, Neuilly-la-Forêt, and Vouilly.
The surname Disney traces its origins to this Norman town, with ancestors like Jean-Christophe d'Isigny believed to have migrated to England centuries ago.
