Best war museum I've ever been to. Doesn't take too long to walk around but the scenes that have been recreated with real tanks, trucks, guns, uninforms, etc. from the war really bring it to life. The settings include mannequins and they are so lifelike. No two faces are alike - they are all unique. I felt some were about to come to life at any minute. Mesmerizing for me. Do it!

Amazing place full of relics about the battle and lots of items all carefully restored. Two large tanks outside on the grass and its situated about 1 mile from the Cemetery. Paid about 10 Euros entrance fee. I passed a small museum before this and was confused because this had collections from the war and was situated in a large house and shed. I paid about 8 Euros to see that although it was worthwhile. Lots of displays and you get a real feel for the D Day landings and the horror that was facing people as they landed. After walking round here I turned left out of the gate and followed the signs first to the cemetery then down to the beach. The beach had memorials there and it was really Eerie. I didn't realise just how close this was to the cliffs and the beach itself

Our visit to the Overlord Museum was a great experience. In the beginning I was a bit hesitant as it was really crowded, but it turned out to be ok. The crowd spread across the museum. The museum shows you a really strong timeline on events with great story’s around the events that are displayed. Well Kept equipment, vehicles and memorabilia. Highly recommend to visit Overlord

Extensive and very comprehensive museum, not only about D-Day, but also the whole of WW2 from build-up to the end. Vast collection of artefacts, with fantastic authentic street and battlefield displays. Throughout the museum, clear information boards in 3 languages added to the experience. Moving real accounts and photos of veterans at the end of the tour. Great gift shop with a wide range of souvenirs. We spent almost 2 hours here and did not feel rushed. Free entrance for veterans, which was appreciated. Highly recommend a visit.

First stop of the day, 2nd June 2024. Leaving aside all the jeeps, half tracks, tanks etc that were visiting for D-Day 80, this museum is well worth a visit in its own right. It has numerous exhibits, dioramas and materiel that tells the story of occupation and D-Day and beyond.

We visited the Overlord Museum during the 80th anniversary celebrations. We were greeted by plenty of vehicles outside, including heavy ones operating in the field. Plenty more stalls to buy vintage stuff. Inside the museum is excellent with a great timeline, displays and a lovely memory wall. Interesting also for a nice mix of German and Allied equipment. A great visit.

Lots of vehicles to see which our 9 year old really loved. Lots of information to read. Things to see outside too so was nice to get fresh air and explore. Large shop with some interesting items to buy.

I was intrigued to learn the story of the collection- alas at the end of the visit. One family used vehicles left after the war to run the family lumber business which was much in demand for rebuilding. I loved the personal stories with accompanying photography. Great visit

Best museum in Normandy. The story of the opposing forces is told through many very detailed dioramas using a lot of original artefacts and vehicles. What makes this museum stand out is the amount of uniforms, weapons and vehicles that are used to recreate the situation in june 1944. Must see. Fun fact is the information on where the many where recovered.

The collection of WWII artefacts and machinery including tanks and trucks from around the region was impressive and I saw some things I have not seen in any other museum. I was impressed at the scale of the displays and the thorough information provided. There is a lot, but I believe you could do it thoroughly in under 2 hours. Try to go when the tour busses aren't there as the slim walkways got crowded quickly. Loved it!
