The D-day Landing Museum stands opposite the remains of the extraordinary artificial port. "The permanent Landing exhibition" displayed here was created in 1953. Its exhibits include personal belongings, relief maps and working models. Designed by the architect Mr François Carpentier, the museum was actually built on the site of the artificial harbour and its remains can still be seen, a few hundred yards away from the shoreline.
Arromanches 360 Situated on Chemin du Calvaire. The cinema was created upon the initiative of the Lower Normandy Regional Council for the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Landings. The film, Le prix de la liberté (the price of freedom) is an outstanding film and is shown on 9 screens in a circular viewing room, an impressive 360-degree Circorama, this is an experience not to be missed.
