After a first inventory published in 2011 in Bilan de la recherche archéologique en Basse-Normandie 1984–2004, this article draws up the most complete overview possible of the Roman religious landscape, in an urban and rural context, within the eight civitates covering roughly the present-day territory of western Normandy. From simple temples without galleries to complexes with multiple temples, via the very traditional and widespread temple with a centered plan (fanum), the aim is to give an account of the diversity of morphology, architecture, and cult configurations, over almost six centuries. It also addresses the question of the furnishings present in the sanctuaries and particular arrangements that can sometimes shed light on ritual practices or allow the identification of the deities worshiped.
