Musée de la Batterie de Merville

The Merville Battery, one of the most iconic sites of the Allied landings, offers an educational tour with an audio guide, a chance to explore a C-47 Dakota aircraft, and a visit to various bunkers. In the largest of these, visitors can relive the minutes leading up to its neutralisation. Sounds, lights, smoke and smells combine to immerse visitors in a deluge of iron and fire similar to what happened at dawn on 6 June 1944.
