Château de Servigny Main Entrance
Description:
The site has several memorials commemorating the significant role that American forces played in the liberation of the Normandy region during World War II. This site is especially tied to the surrender of the German garrison in Cherbourg on June 26, 1944, which occurred at the château. The memorials here honor the bravery and sacrifices of the American soldiers, particularly the troops of the U.S. Army who were instrumental in liberating Cherbourg, a key strategic objective during the Normandy Campaign. The capture of the port was crucial for the Allies to ensure the supply of troops and resources after the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944.
