[3] Before the French Revolution, there was the parish of Tourneville, which today remains a hamlet adjoining Lingreville.

The name sur-Mer was added to distinguish it with Tourneville in the Eure department, in the same region.

[6] Hauteville would back out of the proposal and the mayors of Regnéville and Montmartin also followed suit.

However, the proposal continued with a reduced perimeter between the two neighboring municipalities of Annoville and Lingreville.

[7][8] The two municipal councils adopt the project in early July 2022 and thus Annoville and Lingreville merged on 1 January 2023, forming Tourneville-sur-Mer.
