We were delighted to learn that, as a result of years of hard work, the Normandy beaches of the D-Day Landings were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List.

This does not only include the Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword Beaches but also Pointe du Hoc as sixth amphibious landing site. Along the coast, one can find remains of the infamous Atlantic Wall or the artificial Mulberry harbors and many memorial sites such as the Normandy American Cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach, which is the final resting place of thousands of Allied soldiers who paid the ultimate price of our freedoms.

World Heritage Sites have an ‘outstanding universal value’ for humanity and it means that theses sites have a reinforced protection to ensure that people can visit them and remember what happened there. This recent decision extends the list of the World Heritage Sites of Normandy, since the abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel and its bay has been added to the list in 1979 already.
Join us to explore the newly added World Heritage Sites and Mont-Saint-Michel!

In this year’s D-Day commemorations at the Normandy American Cemetery, 107-year old Omaha Beach veteran U.S. Navy Lt. Arthur Rose addressed the crown and read out his letter that he wrote to his family a few days after the landings. During the operations, he commanded a fleet of 36 vessels that delivered supplies to the troops already fighting on the beaches and further inland.
