Historical Context

During the preparation for the Allied invasion of Normandy, German forces constructed extensive beach obstacles along the Atlantic Wall. These log ramps, positioned in the tidal zone, were designed to damage or destroy landing craft as they approached the beaches. The obstacles were often topped with mines or explosive charges, making them deadly hazards for the Allied forces during the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944. Engineers and demolition teams faced the dangerous task of clearing these obstacles under fire to allow follow-on waves of troops and vehicles to reach the shore.

Perfect For

Ideal for D-Day landing dioramas, Normandy beach assault scenes, and Atlantic Wall defensive positions. Pair with 1/35 scale landing craft or combine with other diorama accessories for complete Normandy invasion scenes.
