The Poteau Michelin, or Michelin signpost, is a relic of the Allied landings in Normandy during World War II. The signpost, which was erected in 1923, was used by Michelin to provide directions to motorists in France. During the war, the signpost was used by Allied forces to navigate the countryside of Normandy.
The Poteau Michelin has become an iconic symbol of the Normandy landings and is a popular destination for tourists visiting the area. In recent years, a replica of the sign has been created to commemorate the historic event. This replica is of the highest quality, fully handmade with solid beech wood and authentic materials.
The lettering, color, and setting of the replica are exact to the original. Even the ratio and profiling of the concrete border are indistinguishable from the original Michelin sign. This replica signpost comes with a Vinsign certificate, a unique production number, and a luxury postcard.
The Poteau Michelin is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the Allied forces during World War II. It is a symbol of the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought and died on the beaches of Normandy. The replica signpost is a fitting tribute to these heroes and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving history for future generations.
