Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux

“This museum is built at the site of the artificial harbour. Remnants of Mulberry Harbour can still be seen, a few hundred yards away from the shore. On June 6th 1944, some 4,126 Allied ships successfully achieved the greatest landings in history on the beaches of Normandy and find out more about the how the Mulberry Harbour was constructed - a truly extraordinary technological feat which provided the key to Victory in Normandy.”

“A trip through the history of the conflicts of the 20th century with artefacts, sound effects, films, and documentation which is continually being updated. Terrifying and gripping, the cafe/restaurant provides a welcome rest. ”

“A peaceful, very fascinating place at Omaha Beach where almost 10.000 American soldiers have been buried after World War II”

“Almost 20.000 German soldiers (among them also 17 year old boys) are buried here. It is a must-do to see the difference between this cemetry, and the American one. In all kind of ways fascinating.”

“Located only 10 min. from downtown Caen Festyland is the largest amusement park in Normandy. New attractions open each year such ERETIC for those who enjoy thrills, and VIKLAND for the younger crowd. KASKADE: round dinghies which climb to a height of over 15 m, descend over a course of over 60 m and then follow a route of more than 185 m of whirlpools and rapids. Picnic and self-service areas.”
