A small seaside commune, Colleville is known for its proximity to Omaha Beach and for hosting the very first American military cemetery of the Second World War. Among the personalities buried in this cemetery are President Roosevelt's son, Theodore Roosevelt Jr, and Sergeant Frederick Niland, who inspired Steven Spielberg's character Private Ryan (the soldier's family having refused the use of his real name). If you're a cyclist, you can take a leisurely stroll along the flax cycle route from the old railway station.
