The arrondissement of Cherbourg was created in 1811.[3] At the January 2017 reorganisation of the arrondissements of Manche, it gained two communes from the arrondissement of Coutances.[4]

  1. Barneville-Carteret
  2. Beaumont-Hague
  3. Bricquebec
  4. Cherbourg-Octeville-Nord-Ouest
  5. Cherbourg-Octeville-Sud-Est
