Overview
-
A major objective for the Allies, the taking of Carentan was crucial to ensure the linkup of the troops landing on Utah Beach and Oma-ha Beach. This mission was assigned to the paratroopers of the 101st US Airborne Division, who would soon face their German counterparts, the fearsome Fallschirmjäger – this was the clash of the paratroops. Located in Saint-Côme-du-Mont, whose capture was a necessary precondition for the liberation of Carentan, D-Day Experience is the only museum to offer a double perspective of the events.
From June 2019 onwards, to better understand the stakes and view the confrontation in the wider context of the invasion and the ensu-ing Battle of Normandy, the 3D film D-Day Normandy 1944 will be shown on a giant screen to offer an unprecedented visual and audio experience... Two museums, a flight simulator and an 3D giant screen theater – D-Day Experience: don’t learn History, experience it!
