Memorial at Omaha Beach

Nowadays, very few mills are still in operation in their original function, but they appear to hikers and cyclists along the river as technical and historical monuments of an ancient craft tradition: solely through human ingenuity and the natural power of flowing water as driving energy, the heavy millstones inside were moved and thus, for example, grain kernels could be ground into flour (so-called grain mills) or oil could be pressed from fruits (e.g. olives) (so-called oil mills).

It is one of the must-see sites along the Freedom Trail.

The National Guard Monument in Vierville-sur-Mer is a significant memorial on the west side of Omaha Beach in Normandy. It was erected to commemorate the U.S. National Guard's service during the Allied landings on June 6 and 7, 1944. The monument is located atop a former German bunker, known as Widerstandsnest 72 (WN72), which occupied a key position in the German defense line during D-Day. Inside the bunker, an original 88 mm cannon is still in place.

The memorial was created by French artist Anilore Banon and consists of three symbolic elements: "The Wings of Hope": These are intended to remind us that the spirit that carried the men on June 6, 1944, should continue to inspire us. "Rise, Freedom!": This element symbolizes the courage of the soldiers who rose up against tyranny. "The Wings of Fraternity": These represent solidarity and a sense of unity between nations.
