Itinerary

1 – Sainte-Mère-Église

In the early hours of June 6, 1944, thousands of American paratroopers dropped over Normandy, making Sainte-Mère-Église one of the first towns liberated in France. The story of Private John Steele, who hung from the church steeple for hours after his parachute snagged, became legendary — a replica still hangs there today. A must-see for understanding the epic story of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions.

2 – Utah Beach

One of the two American landing beaches on D-Day, Utah Beach saw U.S. troops successfully secure the shoreline despite being pushed off course by strong currents. With relatively light casualties, it marked the beginning of the liberation of Europe. Today, the Utah Beach Museum and surrounding monuments pay tribute to the soldiers who made history here on June 6, 1944.

3 – Brécourt Manor

Brécourt Manor is the site of one of the most celebrated actions of World War II. On June 6, 1944, Lieutenant Dick Winters and a handful of Easy Company paratroopers neutralized a German artillery battery that was targeting Utah Beach — an assault still studied in military academies worldwide. Made famous by the Band of Brothers series, this quiet site carries an extraordinary weight of history.

4 – Carentan

Carentan was a critical strategic town linking Utah and Omaha Beach. Its capture by American paratroopers, after fierce fighting through the Norman marshes, connected the two Allied beachheads and opened the way inland. Immortalized in Band of Brothers, the town still bears traces of that intense battle and honors the soldiers who liberated it at great cost.

5 – Omaha Beach

The most heavily defended of the D-Day landing beaches, Omaha Beach was the scene of brutal fighting on June 6, 1944. American soldiers faced withering fire as they stormed the shore beneath German-held bluffs. Today this long stretch of sand is a powerful and solemn place of remembrance. The Les Braves sculpture, rising from the waves, stands as an eternal tribute to their courage.

6 – Normandy American Cemetery

Overlooking Omaha Beach from the bluffs above, the Normandy American Cemetery is a place of profound beauty and solemnity. Row upon row of white crosses and Stars of David mark the graves of over 9,000 American servicemen who gave their lives for freedom. Maintained by the American Battle Monuments Commission, it is one of the most moving sites in all of Normandy.
