Querqueville (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a former commune in the Manche department in north-western France. On 1 January 2016, it was merged into the new commune of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin.[1]
The Chapel of Saint Germanus (Chapelle Saint-Germain) with its trefoil floorplan incorporates elements of one of the earliest surviving places of Christian worship in the Cotentin Peninsula - perhaps second only to the Gallo-Roman baptistry at Port-Bail.
Heraldry
| The arms of Querqueville are blazoned: Gules, a trefoil chapel Or, pierced and open sable, on a chief azure, three bees Or.
