One of the Most Moving Memorials along the Normandy Coastline.
D-Day 75 Garden的点评
点评：The D-Day 75 Garden was one of the most moving memorials along the Normandy coastline.
It is located on the headland above Arromanches and was created to honour the 75th anniversary of the landings.
A sculpture of 97 year-old veteran, Bill Pendell MD, sits, lost in thought, as he looks back at a scene of himself as a 22 year-old landing on Gold Beach with his mates, on the 6 June 1944.
He is quietly reflective and the scene could not be more heart-rending.
Behind him, the young British soldiers are frozen in time as they make their way through the breaking waves and across the sand. A series of metal posts fixed at an angle represent the obstacles and mines that the Germans placed along the beach to making the landing even more difficult and dangerous.
One soldier pauses to hold out a hand to his mate who struggles to get up. Another holds his gun above his head to keep it dry while he forges through the waves.
The young soldiers are not solid. They are made from steel washers which gives them a hazy, nebulous quality. Interestingly, the artist, John Everiss, says that he wanted to create ‘a cloudy impression, like a memory that's fading’.
It is only a short 10-12 minute walk from the beach although it is steep. Halfway up there is a look-out point and a well-preserved Sherman tank. There are several other landmarks and memorials on the headland alongside the D-Day 75 Garden, including the 360-Degree Cinema (formerly a German radar station), an elevated Observation Deck, and the remains of several German bunkers. From here you also have a panoramic view of Arromanches harbour and the beaches below. It is well-worth the climb but if you don’t fancy it, then you can drive up.

翻译：D-Day 75 花园是诺曼底海岸线上最感人的纪念碑之一。
它位于阿罗芒什上方的岬角上，是为了纪念登陆 75 周年而建造的。
97 岁老兵比尔·彭德尔医学博士的雕像坐着，陷入沉思，回想起 1944 年 6 月 6 日，22 岁的他和战友一起登陆黄金海滩的情景。
他静静地沉思着，这一幕再令人心碎不过了。
在他身后，年轻的英国士兵在穿越海浪和沙滩时，时间仿佛静止了。一系列以一定角度固定的金属柱代表德国人在海滩上设置的障碍物和地雷，使登陆更加困难和危险。
一名士兵停下来向挣扎着站起来的战友伸出手。另一名士兵将枪举过头顶，以防枪被水淋湿，同时他自己也在穿越海浪。
这些年轻的士兵并不实实在在。他们是由钢垫圈制成的，这给他们一种朦胧、朦胧的感觉。有趣的是，艺术家约翰·埃弗里斯说，他想创造一种“云雾缭绕的印象，就像一段正在消逝的记忆”。
虽然很陡峭，但从海滩步行只需 10-12 分钟。半山腰有一个了望点和一辆保存完好的谢尔曼坦克。在 D-Day 75 花园旁边的岬角上还有其他几个地标和纪念碑，包括 360 度影院（以前是德国雷达站）、高架观景台和几个德国碉堡的遗迹。从这里你还可以欣赏到阿罗芒什港和下面的海滩的全景。爬山非常值得，但如果你不喜欢，你可以开车上去。
