D-Day took place on the northern coast of France , on the beaches of Normandy along the English Channel.

More specifically, Allied forces landed on a roughly 50‑mile (80 km) stretch of the Normandy coastline, divided into five main beaches with code names: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword. These beaches lie between the areas west of Cherbourg and east toward Caen in northwestern France, directly across the Channel from southern England.

On 6 June 1944, American troops landed primarily at Utah and Omaha, while British and Canadian forces landed at Gold, Juno, and Sword, all as part of the larger Allied invasion known as Operation Overlord. This amphibious assault marked the beginning of the liberation of German-occupied Western Europe.
