This museum is so cool. I had such a great time. Would definitely recommend going here. I’ve been to Normandy 7 times and I’ve seen a lot of museums there but this was definitely one of my favourites

Amazing museum and experience. The 3D cinema was so interesting and available in English and many other languages with headphones. Great two films really informative and great to watch also the flight simulator was something I hadn't experienced in a museum like this before it was great and really gave an insight into the fear these boys and men must of been feeling. So sad but a really enjoyable day. We spent 3 hours here and could of stayed longer, would be nice if there was a cafe as afterwards we were so hungry but that's the only thing I'd say.

Absolutely worth a visit. There are a lot of museums in this area but I would recommend this one as one of my favourites. There two movies in a 3D theatre, a very nice exhibition and a simulation flight in a plane dropping you in Normandy on D-day (or supposed to drop you).

Great experience! Top list museum to see. Beside normal museum: 3d cinema, hologram show and flight simulator = topnotch. Next to museum go have a look to authentic gift shop with real WW2 items!

Fantastic experience. Thought provoking throughout. The small house on dead man's corner has some good displays and explanation. However, the displays could do with a clean as there are rather a lot of dead flies. The 3D cinema was very good but for me the 3D didn't make it any better. The ride on the simulator was to give you an insight to what the men would of felt on 6 June 1944. I feel the price of 19€ pp was worth it The rest of the museum was laid out well, there are some information boards difficult to read as placed too far away. Overall a totally immersive museum and a good day out for all.

Great museum, very digestible, with some cool multimedia experiences and incredible collections of artifacts around D-Day including a ton of Airborne and Band of Brothers items, in a historic location, Dead Man's Corner, the site where German resistance was organized from in the first 3 days of the invasion. Really, just an otherwise unrivaled amount of dioramas and displays of authentic memorabilia and relics from the Normandy campaign. Lot of negative impressions on this place from super history buff types online, but seems all a bit harsh considering the quality here.
