Historic Normandy

Discover Normandy with its many sights of historic significance and natural beauty. Begin your visit at the amazing Mont St. Michel, one of the seven wonders of the world; then on to the D-Day beaches, including Omaha Beach, where Allied forces invaded occupied France, and the famous American Cemetary at Colleville sur Mer.  Drive a bit inland through the beautiful rolling countryside with its many farms and thatched-roofed, half-timbered houses to discover the charming town of Bayeux and the famous medieval Bayeux Tapestry, and centuries-old lace-making tradition and Lace Museum.

Then on to Bayeux, with its well-preserved medieval architecture. Its exceptional architectural heritage emerged miraculously unscathed from the Allied bombing raids of 1944. You'll visit the lovely Cathedral, solemnly consecrated in 1077, in the presence of the Duke of Normandy and the King of England.  The Cathedral later underwent all kinds of extensions and embellishments from the 13th to the 15th century.

Begin at the American Cemetary at Colleville sur Mer. Overlooking Omaha Beach, the American cemetery contains over 9,000 white crosses perfectly aligned on a 170 acre plot which is conducive to meditation and remembrance. A chapel and a memorial add the finishing touch to this moving scene.

La Pointe du Hoc is the symbol of the gallantry of the young American soldiers who fought against one of the strongholds of the German fortifications. The Pointe du Hoc was taken by storm by Colonel Rudder's Rangers on the morning of the June 6, 1944

Battery of Longues sur Mer:  this German artillery battery, which gave the allied ships a pounding on the morning of June 6, 1944, is the only coastal battery to have kept its guns, giving an impressive picture of what an Atlantic Wall gun emplacement was really like.
