Anyone talking about the Normandy landings can't miss St. Mere l'Eglise. Here, everything revolves around the landing of the 101st Airborne. It's a true tourist hotspot, so it can quickly become overcrowded. It's still worth a visit. There are also plenty of opportunities to take a break with a coffee and a crêpe.

Because of the 210mm guns covering Utah Beach, the Saint-Marcouf Battery was of great strategic importance and thus the target of fierce attacks designed to undermine that position. Crisbecq was bombarded with hundreds of tons of bombs, which knocked out the main guns but failed to hit the casemates. On June 8, 1944, during an attack by American troops, Lieutenant Ohmsen requested Azeville's battery support to free his men from their predicament. The garrison held out until the morning of June 12. The resistance was enormous: only 78 of the more than 350 soldiers survived the fighting and were able to advance to Cherbourg. The collapsed casemate on the left was blown up by the Americans after the surrender of the German garrison, but is nevertheless impressive.
