Utah Beach Museum, World War II museum in Sainte-Marie-du-Mont, France
The Utah Beach Museum displays military equipment, vehicles, artifacts, and photographs documenting the Allied invasion of Normandy during World War II on June 6, 1944.
The museum stands on the former German strongpoint W5, where American soldiers of the 4th Infantry Division fought their way through during the D-Day landings.
