Montebourg - Saint-Jacques
Montebourg, located just a few kilometers northwest of "Utah Beach" was a place of heavy fightings in June 1944. The town got largely destroyed and the Church of Saint-Jacques got severly damaged. Impacts of bullets and shells are still visible.
Monks of the nearby "Abbaye de Montebourg", founded by "William the Conquerer" around 1080, were involved, when town and parish developed. The construction of the church started in the early 14th century. It got consecrated in 1329.
The baptismal font inside Saint Jacques was created out of a large Romanesque capital. I could not find any information. The capital may have been "rescued", when the "Abbaye de Montebourg" was sold as "national property" during the French Revolution and the crumbling buildings were used as a quarry.
