The volunteers of Merville-Dakota will bring this iconic aircraft out of its hangar on Thursday, April 16 at 2:00 PM.
It will then return to its outdoor position, once again pointing its nose toward the sky. It will remain on display throughout the summer season, installed in front of its hangar for visitors to enjoy.
Always an impressive moment, made possible thanks to the dedication of the volunteers who work to preserve this piece of historical heritage.
The Merville Battery is a formidable German Army fortification which was located on the Eastern flank of the Allied landings on 6 June 1944.
Bombed several times without success, it was neutralised by the 9th British Parachute Battalion after an assault of unbelievable ferocity.
On this completely preserved historical site, an educational trail takes you on a voyage of discovery of the Battery’s history as you walk between the various blockhouses.
