Museum in Colleville-sur-Mer, offering a new anecdote and piece of history that Pierre-Louis has unearthed

It's not as modern as some of the others in the region, but it's undeniably one of the best! We love to come back in search of a new anecdote, a little piece of history that Pierre-Louis Gosselin has unearthed. This passionate scholar fell in love with the Big Red One (1st US Infantry Division) - one of the first to set foot on Omaha Beach on the morning of June 6, 1944 - during a school trip to the United States. The Big Red One Museum was born of this romance, and has now been open for over twenty years!

Petit musée très sympa

Absolute gem of a museum, came back after 20 years! This guy is brilliant, a credit to the memory of D-Day, dedicated to honouring the bravest men in modern history. Fantastic artifacts and he was willing to tell all about them, blown away with the discovery of the side of a wooden landing craft and the ramp......incredible! Me and my lad loved this place, check it out if you are in Normandy and the D-Day beaches.
