Cucq (French pronunciation:[kyk]; unofficially also:Cucq-Trépied-Stella-Plage;West Flemish:Kuuk) is acommune in thePas-de-Calaisdepartment in the Hauts-de-Franceregion of France.[3] It is made up of three villages: Cucq itself, the village of Trépied in the north and the coastal resort of Stella-Plage to the west.
In 1937 the government sold 1600 hectares of the warrens of Trépied, land of the former domain of the Abbey of St. Josse that was confiscated at the time of theFrench Revolution, to Jean-Baptiste Daloz. Most of this area became better-known later asLe Touquet, a separate commune, in 1912.[citation needed]
