"Parts of the American Mulberry port" Vierville-sur-Mer Things to Do Tip by Pavlik_NL

Like the British at Arromanches-les-Bains, the Americans also created a Mulberry (floating) port along the shores of Normandy to supply the commencing forces with everything they needed. However, this Mulberry port was destroyed in the first best autumn storm, after which the Arromanches Mulberry port became vital for the allied forces. Along the provincial road leading away from the beach at Vierville-sur-Mer, one finds large parts of the American port, as well as a monument for the 6th Engineering Special Brigade, that built it.
