Culture and sights

Trouville-la-Haule is represented with a flower in the Conseil national des villes et villages fleuris (National Council of Flowered Cities and Villages). The "flowers" are awarded in the course of a regional competition, whereby a maximum of three flowers can be achieved.

The Notre-Dame church was built in the 11th century. The bell tower was built in 1448, the south aisle in the 16th century. In 1902 extensive restoration work was carried out, with the bell tower being replaced. A statue of Saint Eligius in the church was particularly venerated. The believers prayed there for the healing of their sick cattle. There are numerous engravings depicting boats on the walls of the church ; an indication of the importance of the river and shipping for the place.

A farm was built around the 13th century. The preserved residential building dates from the 18th century. Today the farm is privately owned. It was probably owned by the abbey.
