Fermanville, Coastal commune in Manche, France
Fermanville is a village situated along the English Channel coast in Normandy, extending between Cherbourg-en-Cotentin and Barfleur. The settlement features a quiet rural character with coastal landscapes shaped by cliffs and small bays.
The Cap Lévi area has served as an important crossing point toward Great Britain since ancient times. This strategic location shaped local development across many centuries.
The commune preserves three historical monuments: the Inthéville manor house, Marie Ravenel memorial stele, and the Cap Lévi lighthouse from the 19th century.
The place is best reached by car, as public transport is limited in this rural area. Visitors should allow time to explore the coastal paths and enjoy the natural surroundings.
This location contains one of Europe's oldest known submerged human settlements, showing early coastal occupation patterns. This archaeological area offers insight into how people lived thousands of years ago.
