Museum allowing visitors to discover the daily life of the civilians of Cherbourg and its surroundings.

Located on the Montagne du Roule, at 117 m altitude, this museum is housed in a former fort of the Second Empire, occupied by the German army during the Second World War. Its recapture by Allied troops on 25 June 1944 is one of the symbols of the liberation of Cherbourg. The tour offers the scenography from the invasion to the reconstruction. It is well done, and one becomes aware of the decisive role of the city in the liberation of Europe. Finally, the view is breathtaking: the whole city, but also the entire roadstead.

Grand musée! Le sens de visite n'est pas très clair mais les éléments présentés et le film sont vraiment bien

Interesting window on the fall, captivity and liberation of Cherbourg. Better if you can read French, there is some translation of captions, but a lot is in French only.

Disappointing. Most of the exhibits are in French so unless you speak the language the museum isn’t very interesting. They have obviously made a lot of effort to put together this collection of artefacts in this old historic building but I couldn’t really understand what I was being shown.
You do get an English leaflet but it only has a brief description of the museum.
It’s a bit of walk uphill to get to the museum and there are some nice views of the harbour.
