Genuine WWII German map, showing no title, made up of an assembly of two pieces taken from different maps. In the center, one can see scale 1:50,000 and date 1943 when holding the map up to the light -- this actually corresponds to the bottom of the upper part.
This map covers a large perimeter located south of Caen, astride the Calvados and Orne départements, which encompasses the towns of Thury-Harcourt and Flers (among others), as well as the Grimbosq and Cinglais forests. This area is known as Suisse normande -- 'Norman Swiss' -- due to its altitude and landscape.
