dbo:abstract
  • The Allied siege of La Rochelle occurred during the Second World War in 1944–45, when Allied troops invaded France. La Rochelle was an important German naval base on the Atlantic for surface ships and submarines, from which U-boat campaigns were launched. La Rochelle and other harbours such as Royan and Saint-Nazaire, became "Atlantic pockets" still occupied by the Germans, which were bypassed by the main thrust of the Allied invasion, as was Dunkirk on the North Sea. The city was liberated only at the very end of the war, nine months after the Liberation of Paris, after the general German capitulation on 8 May 1945. (en)
  • La poche de La Rochelle est une zone de résistance allemande à la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. La poche est constituée de la ville de La Rochelle, de la base sous-marine de La Pallice, de l'île de Ré et de la majeure partie de l'île d'Oléron (le sud de l'île faisant partie de la poche de Royan).

  • L'assedio alleato di La Rochelle avvenne durante la seconda guerra mondiale tra il 1944 e il 1945, quando le truppe Alleate invasero la Francia. La Rochelle era un'importante base tedesca sull'Atlantico, in particolar modo come riparo per gli U-Boot. Fino alla fine della guerra La Rochelle rimase, insieme con altri porti come Royan o Saint-Nazaire, una delle ultime "sacche atlantiche" occupate dai tedeschi, essendo stata oltrepassata dai principali contingenti dell'invasione Alleata. Dunkerque, sul mare del Nord, fu scavalcata in modo analogo. La città si arrese solo al termine della guerra, nove mesi dopo la liberazione di Parigi, in seguito alla capitolazione tedesca dell'8 maggio 1945. (it)
