Folks I will be heading to Normandy in the not too distant future and wonder if there are any V1 sites in the area which are accessable.
Looking forward to the responses to your request as I am in the same situation. Would also appreciate any information on remnants of the Mulberry harbors other than the well-known sites at Arromanches.
http://nl.tracesofwar.com/country.asp?countryid=4 shows all the interesting WW2 sites in any european area. Once you have clicked Normandy (on the Map) type in the search V1 and presto... (This version is the "nl" version, there used to be a english version too... anyway "search = zoeken" ) found: http://en.tracesofwar.com/search.asp
http://en.tracesofwar.com/search.asp Tracesofwar is a great site There is still much to see. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockhaus_d%27%C3%89perlecques
This is the place to visit ! Unfortunately, only in French... http://www.jean-maridor.org/francais/ardouval.htm Some pictures of the site available in the middle of the page ! http://www.dday-overlord.com/forum/visite-site-ardouval-t6542-10.html On Google Earth, type Ardouval and south/close to the village, you find the site Definitely Worth a visit ! ! ! !
I visited France a couple of months ago. Whilst the places visited were more associated with V2, you could do worse than visit the Blockhaus and La Coupole. http://www.leblockhaus.com/intro.htm http://www.lacoupole-france.com/v2-rocket.html Roxy
