Visited on Sunday, just before We went to our Ferry to return home, had been to the Bridge before, during the Summer, but When We went on Sunday access across the bridge was restricted to one way, and it wasn't our way! Despite wet and...More

We were in Brittany and travelled to see this museum despite having already visited. Its a great place to visit and its beyond belief what was achieved here.
As said in previous post,a great place we were lucky to have a very good guide to explain everything to us,allow plenty of time( we were there 4 hours ) if you want to take in everything.
We've been to this excellent museum before but it is always worth revisiting. There are many exhibits relating to D-Day and the events surrounding it, but the most heart wrenching are the two letters from two brothers to their mother. Neither of them returned home.
