On a trip to pay homage to the allied troops that participated in the D Day landings. They don't make em like that any more! The 360 cinema at Arromanches was great value for money and educational.

If you you want to know about the Mulberry Harbour and Normandy Landings look elsewhere. I assume the sadly skewed tripe we had to stand and endure for 25mins was assembled by some sixth formers on day release. This expensive installation is located at the actual site of the extraordinary Mulberry Harbour, arguably one of the most important engineering feats of the 20th Century, however you will not learn who designed it, how it actually got there or see much of the remaining infrastructure outside in use - in fact the British, apart from a minuscule quote from Churchill are hardly represented at all, possibly they were there but really didn’t do a lot (apart from design, build, transport snd erect the most important infrastructure of D-Day, securing the landings in the terrible storms that shortly ensued) - More time is spent with footage of sobbing French women who lost homes and loved ones in the distraction raids that preceded the invasion - massively outnumbered by the young blood of foreign allies who were to liberate them. The credits are played out for some bizarre reasons to an American Deep South black blues track which would have been unknown to all but the most avant guarde of the allied services. An expensive and uninformed load of tripe that could - and should be so much more. I suggest they employ adults and re-do the whole thing as it’s not worth a fraction of the E7.00 entrance fee.

Reasonably priced and regular showings of the film. We loved the little museum before the cinema - it went through the D-Day landings and liberation of Normandy in a chronological way - so very helpful for the beginning of our visit. The film itself was very clever - showed lots of images and made you feel part of it. I just wish there had been a bit more dialogue to go with it - more veterans speaking about there experiences would have made it even more meaningful.

This was one of the highlights of my trip. I added it last-minute, not knowing how incredible it would be. The park around it had one of my favorite monuments and the view of the remnants of the harbor were worth the visit all on its own. But the cinema itself is almost indescribable. I wanted to go back to watch the film over and over - I’ve done a lot of reading of the history and seen a lot of footage but this felt almost immersive. I would highly recommend to anyone going to the area.

Must be my 10th plus visit over the years. New film this year with very different & interesting ending. (No spoilers) Be aware if you are taking younger folks in there sre scenes that may upset. As well as very loud munition explosions.

As a United States Marine, this hollowed ground is on the bucket list of to do's if you can. The Sacrifice and Valor of all that are interred here is a testament and validation of the effort to make the world a safer, more inclusive , and totalitarian free world.

This was the first thing we did on our tour of Normandy beaches and we really enjoyed it. It was a good introduction and I think did a nice job of not glorifying war. War is a last resort and nasty business for everyone, including the victors.

Really great intro to the d-day landings. Plenty of subtitles for most speakers. Could go many times and see different and more bits as the screens are all around showing different stories.

First of all I say possibly not for kids because of how much reading their is. I'm not against that myself but I feel kids may get bored and rush around. The museum at the entrance isn't well thought out as as soon as you enter the turnstiles you're at the start of a history wall with lots of writing about the timeline of how the second world war came about. The artifacts on display were brilliant and I really enjoyed looking around these. Lots of information for every single piece. There are short films in places and areas to have a sit down along with some interactive bits too. The bunker I found a bit disappointing personally but the gardens were very impressive. I really enjoyed the food. We went to the restaurant around by the cinema area and had the burgers. Some of the best food I've had at a visitor attraction

This has to be one of the best museums that I have been to that tells the military history of the area during WW2, there is a brief overview of WW1 With several cinemas along with a 360 degree visual experience is a must see for anyone interested in history. There is a good display of artifacts including a Mig jet in the lower area of the museum, there was a tank and rocket launcher but on the day I visited they we unable to be viewed. To the side of the building is a lift that takes you to the WW2 bunker giving you an explanation for its use. We were there for over 5 hours and I thought it was good value for money. They is a restaurant and extensive book shop selling books pertaining to the Second World War.
