Musee du Debarquement Utah Beach

Located in the Parc Naturel Régional des Marais du Cotentin et du Bessin, the "Madeleine" beach went into history a Tuesday of June 1944. 75 years after, the Utah Beach Landing Museum invites you to walk along paths of our liberators.

Probably the most impressive museum we visited during our tour of the five D Day beaches. From the museum it is only a 100 yard walk to the beach. Once again if you stand and overlook the beach you realise just how exposed the attacking force was especially with regard to cover from the terrain. There are plenty of monuments and viewing points to enable you to see the whole of the beach area. The museum was very impressive the presentation was excellent and it provided a great deal of information to support the exhibits. There is a completed B26 Marauder that l have never seen before which enhanced the visit. Entrance fee 8 Euros very reasonable. Would definitely return again.

Major Richard Winters Memorial

Just awe inspiring to see where history happened. Being at the field where Dick Winters and Easy Co took out the 105s on D Day is something I’ll always remember.

Toured the encampment of WWII Reenactors, listened to a live concert of 1940s music. Military vehicles on display. Walk the town square and read the signs toi learn more about this town's history. Probably more tributes to US military here than in the States.
