The great breakwaters
Kilometres of sea walls stretch across the bay and enclose the harbour. They give the poster its most distinctive feature, a set of long straight lines floating in open water.

A naval port at the tip of the Cotentin, sheltered by vast breakwaters that turn open sea into an enormous harbour.

Te mapa
Cherbourg sits at the northern tip of the Cotentin peninsula in Normandy, facing the English Channel. The harbour dominates its map. Long stone breakwaters built across the bay enclose one of the largest artificial harbours in the world, and inner basins, docks and quays cut deep into the town. Since 2016 Cherbourg has been part of the merged commune of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin.
Behind the port, the old streets are packed onto low ground, and the steep Montagne du Roule rises to the east with a fort on top that overlooks the whole harbour. Cherbourg's links to the sea run deep. The Titanic called here on its maiden voyage in 1912, and the former transatlantic terminal now houses the Cité de la Mer museum.
The town is also known far beyond France through The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Jacques Demy's 1964 musical. A Cherbourg map poster, though, is about the shape of the place itself: breakwaters drawn like pencil lines across the sea, the angular basins of the harbour and the dense town gathered around them.
Kilometres of sea walls stretch across the bay and enclose the harbour. They give the poster its most distinctive feature, a set of long straight lines floating in open water.
Docks and basins reach into the centre of town, creating rectangular shapes of water that separate districts and link the harbour directly to the streets.
A steep hill rises on the eastern side of town, topped by Fort du Roule. There the street pattern thins out and bends around the slope.

Koteā ko Cherbourg
Cherbourg suits anyone with a connection to the sea, the navy, the ferries to England and Ireland, or the Second World War history of the Cotentin. The breakwaters make it one of the most graphic harbour maps in France, clear even from across a room.
