Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Begin at the Normandy Victory Museum, located on an old American airfield. Here 17 realistic dioramas use vintage vehicles, uniformed mannequins and thousands of authentic artifacts to bring the drama and heroism of the invasion to life. Then, board your motorcoach to tour of the areas where the Battle of Carentan unfolded. As M. Fissot explains, this crucial victory allowed the Allies to link the Omaha and Utah Beach landing forces, establish a single front on the Contenin Peninsula and expand their beachhead and supply lines in Normandy.

Special Notes:

Our expert Mr. Fissot is not available on November 8th, 2022. Instead, you will be accompanied by the director of the museum.
