Utah Beach was the first beach to be stormed by the Allies on the morning of 6 June 1944. It was chosen to establish a beachhead in the Cotentin region in order to capture the town of Cherbourg and its deep water port.

At the end of the day, more than 23,000 American soldiers landed to fight a titanic battle and liberate France. The Utah Beach D-Day Museum preserves the memory of these men.

 vérifié  Beau musée Très beau musée avec une belle collection d'objets, et un authentique bombardier grandeur nature. La visite guidée gratuite n'apporte pas grand chose, et ne fait que reprendre certains sujets / thèmes abordés sur les panneaux du musée.

 vérifié  Great museum Great museum discussing the Normandy invasion, not just Utah beach. Many artifacts worth seeing - army vehicles, planes, and landing craft, many historical maps showing intended landing positions, captured Nazi memorabilia - along with a short video. Beach access nearby, but the beach itself is not particularly interesting.

 vérifié  Aanrader! Zeer mooi en compleet museum! Op de plek waar het daadwerkelijk gebeurd is, uniek. Zeer uitgebreide unieke collectie en een deel van de expositie met uitzicht op het strand van Utah Beach. Aanrader!
