What an awesome museum. So much to see and well laid out. Would love to give a massive shout to the very friendly and helpful staff too. In particular to the outstanding Anna (tour guide and ticket zapper!!!). When people enjoy their job it shines out. Thank you

One of the best presentations of the history of WWII (and D-Day in particular) that I've seen. Everything was excellently explained in French, English and German. Most moving was an open letter from a victim of the holocaust asking the the finder/reader simply to think of them and their family ........

Dramatic and realistic monument with memories of the first and second world wars. Does not hold back it's punches while set in a beautiful gardens of remembrance. A place for solemn reflections and contemplation especially at the current time, so many echoes in today's unfolding events.

We purchased the extra recordings so we could have a detailed experience. The museum starts with the end of WW1 and goes through the Cold War era but focus is on WW2. Our children ages 11, 12, and 16 enjoyed listening and the diversity of the museum displays from videos to actual items, to maps, and clothing. It was a museum that brought back to life many of the events and gave you the feelings along with the relics left behind. During our time there, the cafe was not open and we did not wait for the movie, but there is a small cafe shop straight down the street from the the front doors of the museum about 5 blocks through the neighborhood.

Great museum, you really do need a whole 3-4 hrs to do it all! I especially liked the detailed history of France and how the war worked out. Something we miss in history lessons on the other side of the world. Also China, Nanjing, I knew about it but the information here just brought it to a whole new level. Worth a visit, the cafe is also nice!
