TROUVILLE

This article appears in Volume V27, Page 314 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: TOO-TUM
TROUVILLE , a seaside town of north-western France, in the department of
Calvados
 , on the
English
  Channel, 34 M. N.E. of Caen by
rail
 . Pop. (1906), 5684. Trouville is situated on the slopes of well-wooded hills at the mouth of the Touques on its right bank opposite Deauville. Its fine stretches of sand and excellent bathing, a spacious casino and beautiful villas, are among the attractions which make it the most frequented
French
  resort on the channel. Deauville is well known for its race-course and villas, exceeding those of Trouville in luxury, but except during the race fortnight in August (la grande quinzaine) it is quiet and comparatively deserted. The port shared with Deauville and formed by the Touques is entered by a channel between jetties with a
depth
  at high tide of 18i ft. This leads on the one side to a tidal harbour, on the other to an outer and an inner basin. Timber, coals and cement are imported. The
London &
South
  Western Railway Company have a daily steamboat service from
Havre
  to Trouville in connexion with their Southampton and
Havre
  boats. Besides trawling and the provisioning of
ships
 , in which Deauville is also engaged, Trouville carries on boat-building and has rope and briquette works.
