Battery Houlgate, designated as Vill 032, was a German coastal artillery battery constructed during World War II in the Basse-Normandie region of France. Located near Houlgate, this fortified position was part of the Atlantic Wall defenses and served as a sister battery to the installation at Mont Canisy. The site featured ammunition bunkers derived from bunker type 134 and was armed with six 155mm guns.

The fire control bunker was later converted into an observation post. Today, the battery remains in a challenging terrain with many structures on private property, making access difficult for visitors and historians.
