This museum is the only one on the D-Day Landing Beaches to be dedicated entirely to the role played by Canadian troops in the Second World War. There's a moving and educational film called 'In Their Footsteps', lots of exhibits exploring Canada's role in the war and there is also a German bunker outside that you can explore with a guided tour.
For younger visitors, an exhibition called "Grandma, what was it like during the war?" will help children to imagine what their lives might have been like if they has been ten years old in 1944. The tour of the museum concludes with a gallery on the Atlantic Wall (at Courseulles), open for the first time this year.
