William the Conqueror had a castle here of which some structures still exist. Later John Lackland ("Jean sans Terre", "Johann Ohneland"), English King, succeeding his brother Richard I of England ("Lionheart") lived here for a while. Today Bonneville-sur-Touques is a quiet village near the urban agglomeration Deauville-Trouville. Seen in the background is the bridge over the mouth of the Seine near Honfleur / Le Havre.
