Barneville-la-Bertran is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region of north-western France.
The inhabitants of the commune are known as Barnevillais or Barnevillaises.
Barneville-la-Bertran is located north of the Pays d'Auge some 6 km south-west of Honfleur, 15 km south by south-east of Le Havre (across the Seine Estuary) and 10 km north-east of Deauville. Access to the commune is by the D62 from Pennedepie in the north which passes through the north of the commune and continues east to Équemauville. The D279 branches from the D288 south of the commune - just east of Deauville – Normandie Airport - and passes north through the village and joins the D62 just east of the commune. The commune is mostly farmland.
Barneville was called Barnavilla in 1062: from the Scandinavian antroponym Biarn or Barni and the Latin villa giving the meaning "rural domain". Bertran is the family name of the lords of the area in the Middle Ages.
On 6 November 1995 the commune of Barneville officially changed its name to Barneville-la-Bertran.
Barneville-la-Bertran appears as Barneville-la-Bertrand on the 1750 Cassini Map and as Barneville on the 1790 version.
