The history of the district

Sanvic is a former municipality of the upper town of Le Havre, incorporated into the city in 1955. A rural village in the middle of the nineteenth century, it developed from the 1860s onwards under the effect of the urbanisation of the plateaus overlooking the lower town. That history makes it today an extensive residential district dominated by houses, dotted with blocks of flats.

The district overlooks the lower town from some ninety metres above. The funicular, one of the oldest in the world, opened in 1890, has historically linked the upper town to the lower town, and is now complemented by the LiA bus network.
