La Hague

Built around a chain of long-established coastal and inland settlements, La Hague became a single commune in 2017. At the northwestern tip of the Cotentin Peninsula, its territory meets the English Channel, where heathland, headlands and exposed cliffs give the coast a strongly maritime character. Cap de la Hague and the Nez de Jobourg mark this rugged shore, facing the sea routes toward the Channel Islands. Inland, the 16th-century Manoir du Tourp presents the heritage of La Hague. The area is also home to the La Hague nuclear fuel reprocessing plant, an important part of France’s nuclear industry.
