At dawn on 6th June, 1944 the first allied troops arrived in Ranville-Bénouville. You can come and relive their story and learn about their heroic combat to liberate the region.
The museum contains hundreds of authentic objects, all emotive souvenirs, and features the famous Pegasus Bridge which was the first bridge to be liberated on the French mainland.
An actual-size model of a glider from that period is also exhibited in the museum’s grounds.

Open from 1/02 to 30/11.
