About This Attraction
Your visit to The D-Day Story now starts with LCT 7074. This is the last surviving Landing Craft Tank (LCT) from D-Day, and it played a vital role in transporting men and supplied across the English Channel. At almost 60 metres in length the LCT 7074 stands proudly outside the museum.
Inside the museum the compelling story is told through the perspectives of the people involved, using authentic objects, interactives and video. Dynamic displays of the D-Day beaches and iconic landing craft will transport you back to the Battle of Normandy.
The displays are interactive to appeal to all age groups. Based on ordinary people working together to achieve the extraordinary, The D-Day Story features the experiences of men, women and children. The legacy gallery features the magnificent Overlord Embroidery.
A new central gallery, giving the impression of an artist’s studio and explains the techniques used to create the embroidery and an opportunity to learn more about those involved in its creation.
