Did you know that Trouville is not limited to the Normandy sea spray and beach huts of our beloved Trouville-sur-Mer?
No, this familiar name has made a place for itself in every corner of the globe. Why? It's a mystery! But one thing is certain: it makes you smile. Here's an overview of the Trouville villages that dot our planet.
Trouville-sur-Mer, Normandy
Obviously, it all starts here, in our Norman jewel. Between the colorful trawlers and the smells of the fish market, Trouville-sur-Mer is the absolute reference, the matrix, the original... In short, the star of the Trouville region.
Trouville, Seine-Maritime, Normandy

Not far from our beautiful flowery coast, another Trouville hides in Seine-Maritime. No beach here, but a rural atmosphere that reveals another side of Normandy.
Trouville-la-Haule, Eure, Normandy
Yet another Norman Trouville! This one rises up in the lush green landscapes of the Eure department. If you're looking for a concentration of Trouvilles per square kilometer, Normandy is definitely unbeatable.

Trouville Avenue, Norfolk, Virginia, USA
Let's head to the United States, where a Trouville Avenue is nestled in Norfolk, Virginia. Perhaps a tribute to our French roots? In any case, it makes us want to go and plant a Norman flag there.

Trouville Street, Newport Coast, California, USA
Under the Californian sun, Newport Coast is home to Trouville Street, surrounded by streets with French names like Limoges, Versailles, and… Deauville, its immediate neighbor! A taste of Normandy in the heart of the West Coast.
Trouville Road, London, United Kingdom

We cross the Channel and welcome to London, where Trouville Road dominates the urban landscape. Less glamorous than a seaside promenade, but a beautiful nod to Normandy.
Trouville, Columbus, Ohio, USA
In the heart of Ohio, Trouville is the name of a peaceful Columbus neighborhood. No beach or low tide, but a typically American setting where you can easily imagine wooden houses and backyard barbecues. A touch of Normandy, Midwestern version.

Trouville, Montevideo, Uruguay
In Uruguay, a neighborhood in Montevideo is also called Trouville. And there, you feel a completely different atmosphere: South American sunshine and Hispanic accents! Who would have thought?

Trouville Beach, Oran, Algeria
Head to Oran, Algeria, where a beach is named Trouville. Another way to sunbathe and enjoy the waves, far from the English Channel.


Holetown, Barbados
Finally, if we translate Trouville into English, we get “Holetown,” and there is a town of that name in Barbados. What does this have to do with Normandy? None! But it's a great excuse to dream of white sand and coconut trees.


Trouville: the world is his playground
From Normandy to California, via South America and North Africa, Trouville travels and makes you travel. Proof that this name resonates everywhere, like an invitation to escape. So, why not set off to discover all these other Trouvilles? We bet each one hides a little dose of adventure.
Between the time this article was written and it was posted online, The Pays d'Auge published an article on the same subject. And surprise: the journalist even unearthed another Trouville… in Sweden!
