What to expect

Take a journey through 20th-century world - and especially European - history as you discover the numerous exhibition spaces at the Mémorial de Caen Museum. The museum recounts major historical events from the end of the First World War to the fall of the Berlin Wall, focusing more particularly on the European perspective of these historical episodes. This visit is therefore an opportunity to delve into our shared past, with the help of diverse historical documents and objects.

The Mémorial de Caen Museum encourages people to think actively about history, memory, and peace and is, therefore, an essential tool for understanding the world and its transformations. It is also the best way of introducing and explaining D-Day and of understanding in what way the one hundred days of the Invasion of Normandy were a major turning point in history.

Visitors can also purchase tickets to the wonderful temporary exhibition The Dawn of the American Century, which runs until January 5th, 2025. To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Normandy Landings, the Memorial de Caen has chosen to explore the America of the soldiers who gave their lives on the beaches of Normandy in the early morning of June 6th, 1944. The exhibition outlines the cultural, social, and political history of America and Americans from 1919 to 1944, from the triumphant return of the soldiers from the First World War to the Normandy landings, through the Roaring Twenties and Great Depression.
