The Great Bunker Museum of the Atlantic Wall

Located just steps from Sword Beach and the Ouistreham ferry terminal, Le Grand Bunker is a six‑story concrete tower once used to direct coastal artillery fire. Inside, each level has been carefully restored to its June 6, 1944 condition—from the engine room and infirmary to the observation deck with its powerful rangefinder and 360° views over the Seine estuary and nearby coast. You’ll also see a fully restored assault barge used in the filming of Saving Private Ryan, along with artillery displays and personal items that bring the bunker’s wartime story to life.
