In the picturesque region of Normandy, France, brave soldiers embarked on a daring mission to liberate Europe from Nazi occupation. The Manche Department and Calvados Department became synonymous with heroism as they hosted some of the most significant locations during the D-Day invasion. The D-Day Beaches Area served as a battleground where countless lives were sacrificed for freedom. Colleville Sur Mer stands as a testament to courage and sacrifice.
