A very interesting visit, especially with kids (mine were around 10 years old)

My third visit. I still find it fascinating. An informative couple of hours.

A fascinating museum located in an old German coastal defense bunker. Very detailed information plaques offer a ton of information throughout the museum. It can get a bit cramped to navigate if there are a lot of other visitors (there are some narrow halls, low ceilings and tight spiral staircases) so it may not be the best place to visit during peak tourist season. But certainly a worthwhile visit for anyone interested in WWII history. Even if you don't want to pay the admission to visit the bunker, you can still see a couple artillery guns and a D-Day landing craft (used in the filming of Saving Private Ryan) outside in the courtyard.

Definitely worth visiting. You can find a few free, abandoned bunkers in Normandy but the way they have displayed “soldiers” and true artifacts none will give you the feel like this one will.

Wanted to learn more about the construction and development of the Atlantic Wall. The taking of this position could have been done as an interesting ending. Little in the way of real information. Plus side a good collection of equipment but most look in a poor state of preservation. Also why the lack of real literature in the shop. There are a few books now available on 6th June from the German view and it would have been good to see some of these.
