80 years of D-Day
The Allied landings , known as D-Day , represent the first hours of Operation Neptune, itself the initial phase of Operation Overlord , intended to liberate Europe from Nazi occupation.
The landing of June 6, 1944 was a decisive turning point in the Second World War.
80 years after the Normandy landings , the Monnaie de Paris pays a poignant tribute to the nations and men who participated in the liberation of France and Europe.
