- Relive Cherbourg emigrants' Atlantic crossing in Titanic, Return to Cherbourg, and get a sense of the lives of those who wanted to reach the new world
Located in the former Gare Maritime Transatlantique, La Cité de la Mer is the top Normandy tourist site dedicated to man’s adventures at sea and the depth of emotions that come with them.
Visit three floors of spectacular multimedia spaces and dazzling aquariums, and enjoy a number of unique exhibits.
Relive the last hours of the Titanic and soak up the atmosphere onboard, step inside le Redoutable, the largest visitable submarine in the world, and discover the Ocean of the Future and explore the last wilderness on the planet.
Make sure to visit the Art Deco auditorium for a film screening where you can discover the Normandy coast, or hear about Cherbourg’s importance during the liberation of Europe with a film that covers the first 20 days following the Battle of Normandy in 1944.
The Cité de la Mer was voted France's favorite monument in September 2022. In country with the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, and The Palace of Versailles, that's really saying something!
Discover the new exhibition “Listening to the ocean” dedicated to submarines and sound under the sea presented in complement to the visit of Le Redoutable.
It's recommended to visit in the morning to enjoy a full day of visit.

The tour of the nuclear submarine was terrific. It has an experience area where you can test skill with a submarine simulator. The Titanic exhibition of cabins and personal accounts was interesting. The history of the world exploration by sea was very good. The actual aquarium was only average with the exception of the jellyfish column.

Sehr aufschlussreich, vielfältig gestaltet, die Zeit vergeht durch sehr viele interaktive Möglichkeiten sehr schnell. Besonders für Kinder auch sehr schön gemacht. Die Möglichkeit zwischendurch den Bereich zu verlassen zB zum Essen und dann wieder eintreten ist super.
