Directly across the street is the Airborne Museum. This museum houses a collection of five pavilions that tell the story of the U.S. 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions landing on D-Day. Paratroopers dropped into Normandy the night before D-Day to secure the towns and block German approaches towards the landing beaches.

If you look up, the first thing you’ll notice is a parachute dangling off the church. US Paratrooper John Steele’s parachute was hung up on the bell tower when the Paratrooopers dropped into Normandy the night before D-Day. He was trapped there and feined being dead to avoid being shot at, but was eventually caught and taken prisoner by German soldiers. This scene is played out in The Longest Day, starring John Wayne, and is front and center when arriving at the square.

Our second day in Normandy began with a drive to Sainte-Mère-Église, another town famous in D-Day history. Sainte-Mère-Église was the first town in France to be liberated, and it’s a poignant tribute to the Allied soldiers who fought and died for our freedom.

We ended our first night in Bayeux with a delicious dinner at L’Alcôve, a local restaurant serving wonderful Norman cuisine. We feasted on fresh seafood and apple-infused dishes (Normandy is famous for its apples), and it was the perfect introduction to the region’s specialties.

After visiting the museum, the Bayeux Cathedral is just a short walk away. Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Bayeux definitely resembles the Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris. This National Monument dates back to 924 when the Viking Rollo became the first Duke of Normandy. If you watched the History Channel’s Vikings, you’ll know what I am talking about.

Bayeux is a wonderful place for a stroll along its cobblestone streets, which are filled with plenty of history. The Bayeux Tapestry Museum, located in the old seminary, is by far the top draw. This UNESCO-rated museum tells the story of the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 through detailed embroidery spanning 70 meters long (229 feet). This tapestry is nearly 1000 years old, and it’s a fascinating piece of history.

After a quick one-hour drive, we arrived in Bayeux and checked into our hotel, Hotel de Brunville & Spa. This 3-star hotel is located in the very center of historic Bayeux and offers comfortable modern rooms with a swimming pool and hot tub. It was a little slice of serenity and paradise in the middle of a bustling town.

After a long flight and three-hour drive, La Dégusterie on Rue Saint Michel was the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a delicious array of Normandy cheeses and ciders. The owner, David, greeted us with a big smile and a warm welcome, just like everyone we met in Normandy. We loved tasting our way through the region’s specialties as we paired them with different ciders and Calvados.

We have put together a unique D-Day itinerary to help you not only learn about D-day and the months that followed leading to the end of the war but also enjoy the beauty of Normandy’s beaches, taste its delicious cuisine, and have a chance to visit strategic locations and beautiful destinations.

We thought we knew a lot about World War II, but after spending a week visiting the beaches, monuments, and museums, we gained a new appreciation for this critical moment in history and found that the people of Normandy are still grateful to those who liberated their beaches and made it possible for them to rebuild, thrive and enjoy this beautiful part of France today.
