The history of the district

The Port district stretches across the peninsula of Caen, a former port area on the edge of the Saint-Pierre basin, between the centre and the Orne estuary. Long given over to industrial and port activity, the area is today one of the city's major urban projects, engaged in a gradual conversion of its quays and its brownfield sites.

The peninsula is home to major facilities, foremost among them the Alexis de Tocqueville library, designed by Rem Koolhaas and opened in 2017 on the edge of the Saint-Pierre basin, along with Le Cargo, a contemporary music venue, and the higher school of arts and media. New housing developments accompany that transformation. The tram and the Twisto bus network serve the area and link it to the centre.

Sought after for its basin-side setting and its conversion momentum, the Port district blends new homes and refurbishments. It attracts working people, first-time buyers and investors won over by the change under way on the peninsula and by the immediate closeness of the centre and the station.
