Astounding small sculpture park which you can freely wander round. Nice clean bench at the top, from which you can enjoy the view over the landscape. Munch your snack and sup your drink and revel in having got to the high-point of this tour.

August 14, 2023, Grotte de Bion

he cave of Bion is a place of pilgrimage located in the commune of Sainte-Marie-Outre-L’eau. Around 1830, two workers from Pont-Farcy, whose initials are only known (M.L and M.B), placed a statuette of the Virgin in the hollow of an old oak tree at a place called Bion. Unfortunately the oak fell in 1917. The statue was restored in 1925. In 1932, a grotto intended to house the statue of the Virgin was built on the model of Lourdes. The first cave is destroyed and rebuilt, the consecration takes place on May 2, 1937, in front of 3000 faithful. In 1946, a chapel was erected above the cave. For a long time two pilgrimages took place each year, on May 2 and September 8. Today, the pilgrimage takes place at the Assumption on August 15.

The original bridge that stood here over the River Taute was destroyed by the German army as they retreated. This replacement bridge was built in June 1944 by the 300th Combat Engineer Battalion and is named after Major John Tucker, who was killed while building the bridge by shellfire.

Gateway to the Cotentin peninsula and "capital of the marshes", it is located in the middle of beautiful green landscapes, home to the cattle and horses that have made the region famous. Due to the many livestock farms, Carentan is an important livestock trading center and one of the largest centers of the dairy industry in the department of Manche. The city was heavily bombed in June 1944, however some beautiful monuments have been preserved in the center.
