The German Military Cemetery of Marigny is a cemetery where 11,169 German soldiers who fell during the Battle of Normandy are buried. The site had served in 1944 as a burial ground for American soldiers before, between 1945 and 1946, all 3,070 American remains were transferred to the large military cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, in front of Omaha Beach. Near the entrance is a memorial to the soldiers of the VIIth American Corps.
