La Hague is not only about nature
La Hague also has cultural sites, not just rugged beauty. Known for the scenic Customs Path and the wild charm of Goury Port, this remote corner of Normandy is a paradise for nature lovers. Even better, it’s just a short drive from the peaceful guesthouses of La Becterie. But don’t be fooled by the landscapes alone—La Hague also has cultural sites that are absolutely worth your time.
Jacques Prévert last house
One of the most iconic is the Maison Jacques Prévert in Omonville-la-Petite. Prévert, the beloved French poet and screenwriter, spent his final years in this tiny village. Today, his former home is a moving tribute to his life and work. The house is preserved as a museum, filled with personal objects, manuscripts, and photographs. You can even stroll through his garden, which still overlooks the sea he loved.
There is more to discover
But that’s not all. Culture lovers will also enjoy the Manoir du Tourp, a vibrant heritage center. Art enthusiasts can visit the birthplace of Jean-François Millet, the famous painter. For exhibitions and events, head to the Michel Canoville Cultural Center. And finally, for families, the Ludiver Planetarium offers hands-on discovery of space and science—a guaranteed hit with kids.
