We would like to highlight the excellent service provided today during our visit to the museum. Our two CM2 classes thoroughly enjoyed the visit given by the two guides, who were both educational and kind. It's great for the teachers to be able to share in this moment of sharing and to help the children understand the importance of remembering and paying tribute to those who fought for freedom. Thank you once again.

Publié sur Ronald Svérifié Great museum Fantastic museum. The staff were really helpful (and helped us reorganise a disastrous start to our day). Strongly recommend.Publié sur TK9975vérifié Ergreifend Sehr gut aufgearbeitete Geschichte! Absolut empfehlenswert, wenn man sich für den D-Day interessiert. Sehr informativ!Publié sur Schwartz Fvérifié Vaut le déplacement Très beau musée..instructif..intéressant pour les enfants également..beaucoup d'objets et d'explications..avion , chars le tout pour un prix très correctPublié sur Mr.Chrisvérifié Great museum Amazing museum on the beach with huge collection of WW2 items. Built on a former German bunker. A must see if you are in Normandy!Publié sur emuslushyvérifié Moving museum I found my visit to this museum to be memorable and moving. Located so close to Utah Beach, that one of the exhibits was a glass panel looking at a gun placement that had been covered by the sand for a number of years, before being uncovered (I think by the building of the museum). Incorporating this into the museum shows the level of respect held. There were many exhibitis, with lots of information, so you really do have to take your time if you want to read it all. But it is worth it. As an aviation enthusiast, it was very interesting to see the Marauder and the level of preservation in this was great to see. The entry cost was very reasonable. One point of note, there is no air con, so it did get really quite hot, but well worth it. Make sure you visit the statues and memorials outside on the beach and near it afterwards.Publié sur geovérifié Magnifique Magnifique musée,nous y sommes restés plus de 2h,une collection d objets impressionnante.Le musée est tres bien expliqué et l emplacement sur l ancien bunker est authentique.Nous étions sur Houlgate,mais n avons pas regretté d avoir fait un peu de route pour le voir.Publié sur Linda Mvérifié An Amazing Museum and Historical Site The Museum with its location on Utah Beach was such a great combination of a way to learn more about history as well as a way to honor those that served and sacrificed for our freedom!! The location added to the intensity of the experience - the artifacts, movie, pictures and stories of the planning and execution of this portion of D-Day was so well done - thank you to the town and French country that made this Museum possible and their work to preserve our history and honor the memory of all those served ❤️❤️❤️Publié sur Julie Hvérifié Very impressive and informative Incredible displays. Know there are lots of museums along the beaches, but this was our first beach and wanted to learn more before we continued to the other beaches. So much to see & learn. Very well-done.Charger plus
