It is not nature – the transition between mainland and the Atlantic, shaped by the interplay of ebb and flow – that is crucial in these coastal sections, but rather their role in world history in 1944. Since that month, they have been part of the World Heritage. The German UNESCO Commission briefly introduces them with the following words: „The beaches of the Allied landings in Normandy represent a turning point in the Second World War. Here, on June 6, 1944, a new front was opened against Nazi Germany. The site commemorates the great human sacrifices for the liberation of Europe and the close military, logistical, and political cooperation of the Allies. As a place of remembrance, the coast remains inextricably linked to one of the most consequential events of the 20th century, marking the beginning of the end of the war in Western Europe. The World Heritage site encompasses the five landing beaches Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword Beach, as well as the cliff face of Pointe du Hoc.“

Lion-sur-Mer is a small seaside resort on the Côte de Nacre in Normandy, which first developed into a seaside resort in the second half of the 19th century, when wealthy summer vacationers built their beach villas here. The magnificent town hall of Lion-sur-Mer is also a beautiful sight. The small seaside resort of Hermanville-sur-Mer is in the immediate vicinity.

This Churchill tank belonged to the British 79th Armored Division. This unit was commanded by Major-General Sir Percy C. S. Hobart who was the initiator, among others, of this special armored division. It was almost entirely equipped with special armored vehicles, which were of great use on the day of the Normandy landings. This one was a Churchill Avre (Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers), its turret was equipped with a 290 mm projectile launcher. This charge was intended to destroy fortifications or obstacles. This machine was donated by General Ian Harris who commanded the 2nd Battalion Royal Ulster Rifles on June 6, 1944.
