The https://collevillesurmer.fr/eglise/ site notes: "En 1944, l’église sera en partie détruite par un destroyer américain pendant le débarquement, tout particulièrement le clocher car y étaient positionnés sept soldats allemands qui observaient le rivage et communiquaient les données de tirs aux batteries.
La reconstruction de l’église sera menée de 1946 à 1951".
