The Manoir dit La Cour is considered an important example of Renaissance architecture in the Cotentin, more precisely of the Mannerist movement. It has been listed as a historic monument since 2 October 1995. The eastern façade of La Cour features cladding made of dressed limestone and rich Renaissance decoration. La Cour de Reigneville-Bocage, also known as “La Haute Salle”, is also included in the list of significant historic heritage sites of the Clos du Cotentin.

A baptismal font is located in the former choir of the former church in Reigneville-Bocage. It dates from the late 16th or early 17th century and is made of dressed limestone. On 29 July 1991, the baptismal font was registered as a protected object.

The former Saint-Martin church is also part of the history of the village. It fell into disrepair in the 1800s and was not rebuilt; a vaulted arch has survived. The sacristy of the former church, dated 1786, now serves as the town hall.

Another historic building is the Manoir des Ronchettes, a 16th-century residential building in the commune of Reigneville-Bocage. It has cylindrical towers protected by arquebus loopholes. The Manoir des Ronchettes currently offers guest rooms.
