You only need to cross the swing bridge to admire the former maritime terminal of Cherbourg, where Titanic made a stop on 10th April 1912. After passing through the western channel, the Titanic stopped alongside the central fort, in the largest artificial harbour in the world. The stopover lasted an hour and a half and saw a total of 281 passengers board.
Finally, you can take a pleasant stroll in the city center and contemplate the Italian theatre, a historical monument since 1984, which has been called "the golden theatre" by the Cherbourg natives.
