    This monument is located on the location where the first tanks landed on Juno Beach on June 6, 1944. The WN 27 is located 70 meters away. After initially taking losses, tanks of the Canadian Armored Regiment managed to silence the WN 27.

    Widerstandsnest 27 Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer:

    A striking bunker is located in St-Aubin-sur-Mer on Juno Beach and is part of Widerstandsnest 27. A 50mm cannon is still located in this bunker. On the right you can see the heavy damage caused by an AVRE tank.

    The OB is an "OB 50mm KwK mit Haube"
