Pavé mémoriel Stolperstein

The Belvedere at Ouistreham, also known as the Square Alfred Thomas Observatory, was built by the Germans in 1942. As well as offering a picturesque viewpoint, in 1944 it was part of the Atlantic Wall, a firing platform for anti-aircraft artillery. After the war, it was transformed into a viewpoint open to the public, with an orientation table offering a 360° view of Sword Beach, the famous site of the Normandy landings on June 6, 1944.
