D-Day 1944

Vous êtes ici : OT Baie du Cotentin - Sainte Mère Eglise et Carentan » D-Day 1944

On D-Day, 6th June 1944, the Battle of Normandy began, a decisive episode of World War II.

The Bay of Cotentin is an area laden with history. At the heart of the Battle, Sainte-Mère-Eglise, Utah Beach and Carentan witnessed the landings and the first airborne assaults. On D-Day 1944, 150 000 soldiers crossed the Channel to land in the Bay of Cotentin, a strategic place in order to reach Cherbourg and its harbour.

Discover the history of Carentan, where the first American assaults took place, and Saint-Mère-Eglise, the first town to be liberated by the Allies. Learn about the airborne operations and the amphibious landings on Utah Beach…
