La Cité de la Mer: Entry Ticket + Audio Guide

Board a nuclear sub and visit a huge aquarium at France's favorite monument!

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!
