Museum in Colleville-sur-Mer, offering a new anecdote and piece of history that Pierre-Louis has unearthed

Admittedly, it’s not as big and modern as the other well-known museums in the area, but for us, it’s THE museum to visit. We love coming back in search of a new anecdote, a little piece of history that Pierre-Louis has unearthed. This indefatigable enthusiast fell in love at first sight with the Big Red One (1st US Infantry Division) - one of the first to set foot on Omaha Beach on the morning of June 6, 1944 - during a school trip to the United States. This romance gave birth to the Big Red One Museum in 2004, 20 years ago!

We visited this museum approx 20 years ago and it was fascinating then so love to see it now. Chatted with the then young man who told us it all started with items he found on the beach as a child , fabulous stories to be heard. Recommend.

A very interesting Museum. Not too big but with original items. Didn't know that the bottom of the Ship, soldiers went to the beach, was of wood! Crazy! The owner is a very nice Person, who told me a lot of details! He is a real enthusiastic who search items of the invasion on the beach himself!
