A piece of history worth seeing.

Manche commemorative monument located at Saint-Martin-de-Varreville beach. It is part of a series of ten monuments of identical appearance created by Yves-Marie Froidevaux and erected by the Normandy landing committee on the historic sites of the landing. That of Saint-Martin-de-Varreville is made up of a massive column and a commemorative plaque placed at the foot. On the top of the column are engraved the words “On June 6, 1944, the allied armies landed at dawn”, or “Here General Leclerc, commanding the 2nd Armored Division, approached”. The latter is surmounted by a bust of the General. These are therefore two events which are commemorated at the same time: the landing of June 6 on Utah Beach and that of General Leclerc on August 1, 1944. There are equivalent monuments in Carentan and Sainte-Mère-Église.

Fort Ravenoville (19th century), built on an old square masonry redoubt dating from 1689. The enclosure as well as the old interior guardhouse have been profoundly modified. The remains of the vast "Widerstandsnest 14" next door date from the Nazi-German Atlantic Wall.

The name of the village might refer to an earlier chapel across the street of the Notre Dame Church of Bon Secours
