Les tours Vauban

Les tours Vauban
blur-effect

Edifiées de 1694 à 1699, suite à la bataille de la Hougue, les tours Vauban de la Hougue et de Tatihou encadrent la baie de Saint-Vaast, telles des sentinelles.
Le tir croisé de leurs batteries avait pour but de protéger la « plus belle rade de France » selon Vauban lui-même. Inscrites au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO en 2008 dans le cadre du Réseau des sites majeurs de Vauban, elles représentent une facette de son œuvre, à savoir "les tours tronconiques d'observation et de défense côtières".

Visit La Maison Folia
Granville, Mont Saint-Michel, Agon-Coutainville, and the D-Day landing beaches… An exceptional tourist destination renowned in France for its sand yachting beaches, surfing waves, and Moncey oysters. What gives this area its strong distinctiveness is its coastal river, the Sienne, passing less than 1 km from La Maison Folia and joining the sea 10 km further. An exceptional adventure to experience as a couple, with friends, or as a family!
The village of Quettreville-sur-Sienne is 2 kilometers away, where you will find a bakery, doctor, pharmacy, tobacco shop, post office, bars restaurants…

The sea is 9 km away, accessible by country roads. You can find popular large sandy beaches like in Hauteville-sur-Mer or Agon-Coutainville, or more wild beaches like in Annoville. At low tide, the sea recedes to leave 2 km of beach.

Discover the Sienne Estuary by Canoe
Spend an unforgettable day with friends or family canoeing down the Sienne from Quettreville-sur-Sienne to the sea at Hauteville-sur-Mer. The Sienne descent begins between fields (2-hour journey), continues through the magnificent Sienne Estuary (2.5-hour journey), and ends in the sea at Hauteville-sur-Mer.
