Normandy Removals. One Certified Partner. One Quote.

Normandy (Normandie) is a region in north-west France covering five departments: Seine-Maritime (76, capital Rouen), Eure (27, capital Évreux), Calvados (14, capital Caen), Orne (61, capital Alençon) and Manche (50, capital Saint-Lô). Caen is the regional capital with a population of approximately 110,000. Rouen, the historic capital, has one of the best-preserved medieval city centres in France. Cherbourg on the Cotentin peninsula is a major Channel ferry port.

Normandy has approximately 7,500 British permanent residents. It is one of the most historically significant regions for British visitors: the D-Day landing beaches of 6 June 1944 are in Calvados and Manche, the Bayeux Tapestry (depicting the 1066 Norman Conquest) is in Bayeux, and Monet's garden at Giverny is in Eure. The British Normandy Memorial at Ver-sur-Mer, opened in 2021, commemorates 22,442 who died under British command in the 1944 Normandy campaign. Normandy is also one of the most accessible French regions from the UK by road. IRC has confirmed enquiries from Granville, Louviers and Cuves.

Normandy: Five Departments, One Shared History

The D-Day beaches: 6 June 1944

On 6 June 1944, more than 160,000 Allied troops from Britain, the United States, Canada and other nations landed on five beaches along the Normandy coast in the largest seaborne invasion in history. The British beaches (Gold and Sword) and Canadian beach (Juno) are in Calvados; the American beaches (Utah and Omaha) span Calvados and Manche. The British Normandy Memorial at Ver-sur-Mer, unveiled on 6 June 2021, records the names of 22,442 people who died under British command in Normandy from 6 June to 31 August 1944. For British movers, this history gives Normandy a personal resonance found nowhere else in France. Bayeux, the first French town liberated (7 June 1944), also houses the Bayeux Tapestry and is 30km from the beaches.

The Bayeux Tapestry: 1066 and the Norman Conquest

The Bayeux Tapestry is an embroidered cloth approximately 70 metres long, depicting the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 and the Battle of Hastings. Probably commissioned in the 1070s by Bishop Odo of Bayeux, it is one of the most important medieval artefacts in existence. It is housed in the Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux in the town of Bayeux, Calvados. It is as much a piece of British history as French history and connects the two nations in a unique way.

Granville, Louviers and Cuves: IRC confirmed catchment

Granville is a seaside town on the Manche coast, 110km south-west of Caen, known for its old upper town, beaches and proximity to Mont Saint-Michel (50km south). Louviers is a market town in Eure, 30km south of Rouen, with easy access to Paris (120km east). Cuves is a small commune in Manche in the southern Cotentin. All three are confirmed IRC catchment communes reflecting the geographic spread of Normandy enquiries.
