Arromanches during the 2nd World War

Her fame earned her for hosting the artificial bridge that was used to transport weapons and equipment of the Allied forces. The vehicles, the men and the supplies have all been there.
The port and its history
The port was built using huge caissons of reinforced concrete, called Phoenix caisson. Added to these caissons built in England, there are also floating pontoons and old boats voluntarily sunk. The port was put into service on June 14, 1944. With the prefabricated port, called Muberry, 9,000 to 22,000 tons of equipment per day could be transported, which made it possible to dispense with the conquest of the ports in deep water, such as those of Cherbourg and Le Havre, well guarded by the German army. A total of 2.5 million men, 4 million tons of equipment and 500,000 vehicles were landed.
