The COBI Sainte-Mère-Église Church set recreates the historic Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption church in Sainte-Mère-Église, Normandy, using 2,280 construction blocks.

The removable roof allows access to the interior, and the set includes environmental details such as vegetation, a historic water pump and a minifigure representing John Steele caught on the tower with a parachute. This official collector's set features a special 80th-anniversary logo for the D-Day commemorations in 2024.
