A small museum in Souleuvre-en-Bocage, dedicated to the British troops taking part in Operation Bluecoat.
More discreet than others, but no less instructive and, what’s more, run by volunteers, this museum honours the British troops who took part in Operation Bluecoat from 30 July to 7 August 1944. A key operation in the Battle of Normandy, this breakthrough enabled the encirclement of the German 7th Army in the Falaise Pocket. The small museum opened in 1983 in the attic of the village school, at the instigation of Jean Ménard, a local resident who lived through the Occupation.
