Postcards and old photos of Vierville
From the end of the 19th century, the development of photography led to the publication of many postcards depicting the landscapes of the municipalities of France.
Vierville-sur-Mer did not escape it, and it is by the hundreds that the sites of our municipality have been preserved in this form.
Several Vierville collectors have managed to safeguard this heritage, a witness to the history of Vierville.
They have thus made it possible to gather here reproductions of a good part of them, supplemented by other photos of various origins.
