The Omaha Beach Memorial Museum is located on the very site of the American naval landing of June 6, 1944, in Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer in Normandy, in the immediate vicinity of Omaha Beach. Established over an area of 1,400 m², it is situated 200 meters from the coast and approximately 3 kilometers from the American cemetery. The museum was created with the aim of preserving the memory of soldiers who died during the landing and of passing on to future generations the memory of the price paid for freedom. Visits are open to the public, allowing visitors to discover the heritage linked to this major event of the Second World War.
