Juno Beach Centre, Military history museum in Courseulles-sur-Mer, France.

The Juno Beach Centre spans 1,400 square meters with exhibitions detailing Canadian military operations and civilian life during World War II.

Founded in 2003 by veteran Garth Webb, the museum stands on the exact location where 14,000 Canadian soldiers landed during D-Day operations.

The museum presents photographs, documents, testimonials, and artifacts that tell stories of Canadian contributions to the Allied victory.

Canadian students conduct guided tours of the beach bunkers and museum exhibits daily from April through October in English and French.

The building's titanium-clad exterior forms the shape of a maple leaf, connecting Canadian identity with the Normandy shore location.
