Basseneville is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region of north-western France. [3]
The inhabitants of the commune are known as Bassenevillais or Bassenevillaises. [4]
Basseneville is located in the Pays d'Auge some 12 km east of Caen and 8 km south-east of Cabourg. Access to the commune is by the D675 road from Goustranville in the east which passes through the south of the commune continuing south-west to Saint-Samson. The D224A also comes from Saint-Samson and passes through the commune continuing north-east to join the D224 just north-east of the commune. The A13 autoroute passes through the commune from east to west but has no exit - the nearest exit is Exit 29 Dozulé to the east of the commune which has no direct access the commune and Exit 30/31 to the south-west which connects to the D675. Apart from the village there are the hamlets of L'Église, Les Marettes, Saint-Richer, and La Chollerie. The commune is entirely farmland. [5] [6]
The Dives river forms the north-western border of the commune as it flows north-east to join the sea at Cabourg. The Grand Canal forms the south-eastern border of the commune. [5] [6]
Basseneville appears as Bafneville on the 1750 Cassini Map [7] and as Bosneville on the 1790 version. [8]
A railway station on the Caen to Dozulé-Putot line existed in the commune from 1881 to 1938. The line that passed through the commune was finally closed in 1943.
