Il Mulberry Harbour (Porto Mulberry) o porto artificiale di Arromanches era un tipo di porto temporaneo artificiale sviluppato nella Seconda guerra mondiale per essere utilizzato durante gli sbarchi del D-Day. Nei 100 giorni successivi al D-Day, questo porto, che divenne conosciuto anche con il nome di Port Winston, fu utilizzato per far sbarcare oltre 2,5 milioni di uomini, 500.000 veicoli, e 4 milioni di tonnellate di rifornimenti, facendo così transitare gran parte dei rinforzi necessari per l'avanzata in Francia.Port Winston viene comunemente indicato come uno dei migliori esempi di ingegneria militare. I suoi resti sono ancora visibili oggi dalle spiagge di Arromanches. (Da Wikipedia) Questo è stato lo spettacolo che mi ha offerto la Normandia al mio arrivo dopo 1.200km di macchina.
