Airborne Museum, Military history museum in Sainte-Mère-Église, France.
The Airborne Museum displays authentic World War II aircraft including a Waco CG-4 glider and Douglas C-47 Skytrain in three parachute-shaped buildings.
The museum opened in 1964 to commemorate American paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions who landed in Normandy during D-Day operations.
Each exhibition space presents military equipment, personal artifacts, and documents that tell the stories of soldiers who participated in the liberation of France.
The museum requires approximately two hours to visit, with admission prices at 11.50 euros for adults and 7.50 euros for children between 6 and 16 years.
Visitors can experience a simulation of the D-Day landing through digital tablets that display reconstructions of Normandy in June 1944.
