Bricquebec, a commune in the Manche department in Normandy in northwestern France.
Inhabitants are referred to as Bricquebétais.
As revealed by the etymology of its name, the origin of Bricquebec (from the Scandinavian bekkr, a course of water; in turn from brekka, slope) is connected to the epic of Viking invaders, very solidly implanted in the Cotentin peninsula at the beginning of the 10th century. Tradition attributes the foundation of the château to the Norman, Anslech. The dukes of Normandy made Bricquebec one of their strongholds.
