The Battle for Caen (June to August 1944) is the name given to fighting between the British Second Army and the German Panzergruppe West in the Second World War for control of the city of Caen and its vicinity during the larger Battle of Normandy. The battles followed Operation Neptune, the Allied landings on the French coast on 6 June 1944 (D-Day). 

The Caen Church is representative of the types of Churches found throughout France. Its sturdy walls provided ample protection from enemy gunfire, whilst the tall steeple gave the defenders an excellent place with which to spot the enemy as they approached.
