The German commander at Normandy during the D-Day invasion in June 1944 was Field Marshal Erwin Rommel. He was in charge of the German Army Group B, responsible for defending the coast against the Allied invasion. Rommel was known for his defensive tactics and had prepared for the invasion, but his forces were ultimately unable to repel the Allied landing due to various factors, including surprise and a lack of coordinated response.

What was the German plan for the invasion of Normandy?

Most of the German generals had no plan for the invasion of Normandy. They were almost all fooled by the Allied strategy of building a fake army in Norfolk, apparently to attack Calais,far north of Normandy. Rommel was the only senior German who anticipated the attack in Normandy and he couldn't persuade his superiors of this. The heavily armed Omaha Beach was a product of Rommel's ingenuity.
