Mont Pinçon is the highest point of the Department of Calvados, in Normandy, with an elevation of 362 metres (1,188 ft).[1] It is in the west of Norman Switzerland about 30 kilometres (20 mi) to the south-west of Caen, near the village of Plessis-Grimoult.
It was the site of many strategic battles in the Battle of Normandy with the Allied attack in Operation Bluecoat.[2] In 1956, Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF, now TDF) installed a transmitter pylon over 200 metres (660 ft) high, which still serves most of the Basse-Normandie region.[3]
