Le weekend
This last weekend my program's group traveled to Normandy and Brittany. It was a very cool trip! On Saturday we drove from Paris to Caen, Normandy. We visited the Memorial de Caen, which is a museum/memorial from WWII. Caen was a city during WWII that was occupied by the Germans, and it was a major victory when the Allies were able to seize it. After Caen, we drove on to Omaha Beach to the American Museum there. It was beautiful, haunting, and eerie to see the sight of where the troupes landed on D-Day. When I was in the museum, I was listening to an interactive audio recording of soldier's experiences from D-Day, and the first button I happened to push was of a soldier from Mt. Vernon, IL! What a small world. To climb down to the actual beach part of Omaha Beach took awhile. It's very steep to get down to the shore, it's hard to imagine how difficult the soldiers had it. Seeing the sight at Omaha Beach really made me feel proud to be an American. After the beach, we drove onward to Saint-Malo, which is on the coast, and is a walled city. We stayed at a cute little hotel, similar to a B&B and had dinner at a nice restaurant, too bad I ordered my steak too rare...

D Day Landing Beaches One-Day Tour

Highlights of the Normandy landings, 6th June 1944

The D Day landings on the beaches of Operation Overlord on 6 June 1944 have left such a legacy of fascinating historical sites to visit all along the Normandy coastline that there is never enough time to see everything. However, if you have a day to spare and would like to visit the Normandy Beaches, our guided tour of the highlights of the D Day landings will be ideal. Although there is a lot to see, rest assured we will not rush you from site to site offering only brief, superficial explanations of the significance of each location. Guided tours for individuals or small groups

D Day Tours Normandy Three Day Signature Tour

A comprehensive and detailed three-day tour of Operation Overlord

Our three-day tour combines a quality guided tour of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy with a relaxing short holiday. Our friendly personal service, luxury accommodation and delicious home cooked cuisine make this an ideal tour for small parties of up to six people who want to really find out more about what happened in the early hours and days of Operation Overlord.

DAY 1

Pegasus Bridge

The famous bridge across the Orne Canal at Benouville captured by a daring glider assault in the early hours of D-Day. We follow a visit to the bridge by taking coffee at The Café Gondree before visiting the Memorial Pegasus Museum.

The Merville Battery

The silencing of the German battery at Merville in an improvised attack by an ad-hoc force of paratroopers from 9th Battalion, The Parachute Regiment is a story of outstanding courage and leadership.

Ranville Cemetery

The reality of war and conflict should never be forgotten. It is always very humbling to visit a war cemetery where we pay our respects to the young men who lost their lives in war.

DAY 2

Sword Beach

The landing of British 3rd Infantry Division at La Breche in the face of stubborn resistance from Strongpoint 'Cod.'

Hillman Fortress

The British advance on Caen was significantly delayed by this well-disguised and strongly defended underground complex.

Juno Beach

The Canadian landing at Bernieres-sur-Mer. The original sea wall, concrete bunkers, machine gun and mortar emplacements which inflicted heavy casualties on The Queens Own Rifles of Canada as they came ashore still remain.

Gold Beach

Sgt Major Stanley Hollis, D Company, The Green Howards, was the only British & Commonwealth Soldier to win the Victoria Cross on D-Day. Hollis landed with 50th Infantry Division on King Sector of Gold Beach at Ver-sur-Mer.

Arromanches

'The story of the Mulberry harbours must rank among the most remarkable to emerge from the Second World War. In terms of engineering achievement it is surely one of the greatest of all time.'

DAY 3

Omaha Beach

It was at Omaha Beach that the Allies found the strongest German defences on D-Day, where they took their heaviest casualties and where they came closest to defeat.

St Mere Eglise

The strategically important market town stands on the main highway to Cherbourg. It was a key objective for U.S. 82nd Airborne Division. The museum at St Mere Eglise is a corner stone in understanding the role of U.S. Airborne forces during the Battle of Normandy.

Brecourt Manor

Following the success of the T.V. Drama 'Band of Brothers', Brecourt Manor is a popular site to visit. We shall explain what really happened here.

Utah Beach

U.S. 4th Infantry Division landed on Utah Beach. Spearheading U.S. VII Corps drive to isolate the Cotentin peninsula and capture the important port of Cherbourg.

The Pointe du Hoc

Tasked with neutralising the German gun battery at the Point du Hoc, D, E and F companies of the U.S. 2nd Ranger Battalion under the command of Lt. Colonel James Rudder climbed the 100-foot high cliffs of the Pointe to accomplish their mission.

The U.S. National Cemetery and Memorial at Colleville-sur-Mer

'The sight of the brilliant white headstones, laid in immaculate lines and set against the dark greens of the surrounding trees is beautiful, moving and tragic'

Places to see in ( Caen - France )

Places to see in ( Caen - France )

Caen is a port city and capital of the department of Calvados in northern France's Normandy region. Its center features the Château de Caen, a circa-1060 castle built by William the Conqueror. It stands on a hill flanked by the Romanesque abbeys of Saint-Étienne and Sainte-Trinité, which date from the same period. The multimedia museum Le Mémorial is devoted to World War II and the 1944 Battle of Normandy.

Caen is located 15 kilometres (9.3 miles) inland from the English Channel, two hours north-west of Paris, and connected to the south of England by the Caen-(Ouistreham)-Portsmouth ferry route. Caen is located in the centre of its northern region, and it is a centre of political, economic and cultural power. Located a few miles from the coast, the landing beaches, the bustling resorts of Deauville and Cabourg, Norman Switzerland and Pays d'Auge, Caen is often considered the archetype of Normandy.

Caen is known for its historical buildings built during the reign of William the Conqueror, who was buried there, and for the Battle for Caen—heavy fighting that took place in and around Caen during the Battle of Normandy in 1944, destroying much of the city. The city has now preserved the memory by erecting a memorial and a museum dedicated to peace, the Memorial de Caen.

The castle, Château de Caen, built circa 1060 by William the Conqueror, who successfully conquered England in 1066, is one of the largest medieval fortresses of Western Europe. In repentance for marrying his cousin Mathilda of Flanders, William ordered two abbeys to be built on the Pope's encouragement:

Eglise St.-Etienne, formerly the Abbaye aux Hommes (Men's Abbey). It was completed in 1063 and is dedicated to St Stephen. The current Hôtel de Ville (town hall) of Caen is built onto the South Transept of the building.
Eglise de la Ste.-Trinité, formerly the Abbaye aux Dames (Women's Abbey). It was completed in 1060 and is dedicated to the Holy Trinity. The current seat of the regional council (conseil régional) of Basse-Normandie is nearby.

Other attractions in ( Caen - France ) such as :

Jardin botanique de Caen, a historic botanical garden
Church of Saint-Pierre
Mémorial pour la Paix (Memorial for Peace) built in 1988, charting the events leading up to and after D-Day. It is an emotional presentation inviting meditation on the thought of Elie Wiesel: Peace is not a gift from God to man, but a gift from man to himself. The Memorial for Peace also includes an exhibit of Nobel Peace Prize winners and another one on Conflict Resolution in different cultures.
Parc Festyland, an amusement park to the west of Caen in the nearby town of Carpiquet. The park receives 110,000 visitors every year.
Mondeville 2 is a regional shopping centre in adjoining Mondeville.

Caen has a recently built, controversial guided bus system—built by Bombardier Transportation and modelled on its Guided Light Transit technology—and a very efficient network of city buses, operated under the name Twisto. Caen - Carpiquet Airport is the biggest airport in Lower-Normandy considering the number of passengers that it serves every year. Caen is served by the small port of Ouistreham, lying at the mouth of the Caen Canal where it meets the English Channel. Caen is connected to the rest of France by motorways to Paris (A13), Brittany (A84) and soon to Le Mans (A88–A28). Although a fraction of what it used to be remains, Caen once boasted an extensive rail and tram network. From 1895 until 1936, the Compagnie des Tramways Electriques de Caen (Electrical Tramway Company of Caen) operated all around the city. Caen also had several main and branch railway lines linking Caen railway station to all parts of Normandy with lines to Paris, Vire, Flers, Cabourg, Houlgate, Deauville, Saint-Lô, Bayeux and Cherbourg. Now only the electrified line of Paris-Cherbourg, Caen-Le Mans and Caen-Rennes subsist with minimal services.

( Caen - France ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Caen . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Caen - France

This is the castle of William the Conqueror, brother of Adele, who married Odo of Champagne. The video also contains the Abbey aux Dames where Mathilda, William's wife, is buried, and the Abbey aux Hommes, where William is buried. The abbeys are on opposite ends of the road which runs by the castle. Adele (Adelais) and William were full brother and sister.

Normandie: Notre visite de cette belle région en un week-end #Normandie #voyage #France

Voir Etretat, Fécamps, Honfleur, Omaha beach, Colleville, le mont Saint-Michel, Arromanches et Bayeux tout ça sur 4 jours, c'était un peu rapide mais très intéressant.
Nous avons pris notre tente et direction la Normandie pour un beau voyage de 4 jours en Normandie.
Nous avons vu aussi une plage du débarquement de juin 1944. Le cimetière américain de Colleville.
Le Mont Saint Michel c'était un peu loin mais c'était un incontournable d'une visite de la Normandie.
Reste encore pas mal de chose à explorer mais ce sera pour une prochaine fois.

Day 16: WWII Beaches of Normandy - 30 Days In Paris France

Day 16: WWII Beaches of Normandy - I took a 14 hour bus tour to the beaches of Normandy where on D-Day, June 6, 1944, the Allied forces landed and began the Battle Of Normandy. It was the beginning of the end for Hitler and the German Army. Watching a movie like Saving Private Ryan or the HBO's series Band Of Brothers before your visit will give you added insight into the events of D-Day. The Normandy cemetery was beautiful, a fitting place for those who gave their lives for our country. The tour was operated by Paris Vision. The bus was clean and comfortable. The tour guide was knowledgeable. Bruce

Places to see in ( Caen - France ) Caen Streets

Caen, in Normandy, is one of the oldest university towns in France. Bustling with activity, it is a vibrant and attractive city on the River Orne. Brimming with exquisite art and fashion boutiques alongside superb markets selling fine wines and fresh produce, Caen provides an indulgent shopping experience. The rich tastes of Normandy can be experienced not only in the dairy and seafood dishes served in Caen's excellent restaurants but also at the street side crêperies and pátisseries. In particular, the Vaugueux quarter has a number of excellent restaurants. Veal and pre-salé lamb, reared on the salt marshes of the Mont St Michel area are local specialities.

Plunge into Caen's fascinating history by visiting the last resting place of William the Conqueror at the fairytale Abbaye aux Hommes (the 'Men's Abbey'). It now contains only his thigh-bone, having been destroyed by a Calvinist mob in the 16th century. You can also explore William's Chateau de Caen, an 11th century castle that is one of the largest medieval complexes in Europe and an impressive piece of military architecture. Surrounded by a dry moat, the Chateau de Caen is now home to the Musée de Normandie which explores the region's history from the Gauls and the Romans to the Vikings and Saxons, with exhibitions about the landscape of Normandy and the everyday lives of the Norman peasants.

Caen is a fantastic starting point to explore the sites of the Normandy Landings with guided beach tours, and the emotive Caen Memorial Museum, dedicated to peace, is renowned as one of the best WW2 museums in France. The museum focuses on a theme of reconciliation which guides you through the many collections about modern wars and acts of warfare but is particularly centred on WW2. Do not forget to visit the Gardens, especially the British Garden opened in 2004 by Prince Charles.

Pegasus Bridge and its memorial are a short drive away whilst the British and Canadian Landing Beaches, Juno and Sword are also very close by for those wishing to unearth more about this important part of European history. Nearby St Lô was almost destroyed during the war and although it was considered that it should be kept as a memorial, it has been largely rebuilt. Other attractions close to Caen include Festyland, a popular theme park for young children where they can learn all about William the Conqueror, the Vikings, pirates and much more whilst having lots of fun! You can also see Bayeux Tapestry itself in Bayeux, less than an hour away.

Capital of a region renowned throughout the world, Caen lies only a few kilometres from the English Channel. Due to its geographical position, between land and sea, less than 2 hours from Paris and facing the South Coast of England, Caen is a destination awaiting your discovery. Founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th century, Caen attracts visitors from all over the world who come to discover its Romanesque abbeys, its 11th Century castle and its Memorial Museum. With a good commercial city centre, many welcoming hotels and attractive surrounding districts, Caen is a place where the good life comes easy.
