When we are interested in the history of the West Coast Center Manche, we think of the fortified castle of Pirou, the Benedictine abbey of Lessay or the guardhouse which has guarded the harbor of Saint-Germain-sur-Ay for almost three hundred years. These three emblematic sites of southern Cotentin are not only witnesses of the past, but also windows opening onto bygone eras. Prepare to be transported through time as you discover the secrets and treasures of these monuments steeped in history.
