Den Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial er en amerikansk militærkirke og monument til minde om de amerikanske soldater, der faldt ved landgangen i Normandiet under Anden Verdenskrig. Kirkegården ligger i landsbyen Colleville-sur-Mer, Calvados, Frankrig. Selvom kirkegården med lidt over 35.000 m² er større end den største britiske kirkegård på det europæiske fastland, nemlig Tyne Cot Cemetery, rummer kirkegården cirka 2.500 færre kroppe. På kirkegården ligger 9.387 amerikanske soldater begravet, herunder én soldat fra Første Verdenskrig. På denne kirkegård ligger også general Roosevelt begravet, med sin bror ved hans side. Der er 307 uidentificerede lig begravet. Den Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial drives af American Battle Monuments Commission.
