Local attractions

Take the peaceful stroll or quick bike ride from the site into the centre of Bayeux a kilometre away, home of course to the mammoth Bayeux Tapestry, the 68 metres of 11th-century tapestry depicting the Normandy invasion of England and the subsequent Battle of Hastings. Also in town is the 11th-century Bayeaux Cathedral, a British war cemetery, the Memorial Museum of the Battle of Normandy and the MAHB art museum, with paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, porcelain and Bayeux lace from throughout the centuries. Another D-Day museum is at Arromanches-les-Bains, 12 kilometres north-east of Bayeux, and the Normandy landing beaches of Omaha, Juno and Utah are all within 40 kilometres. The Caen Memorial, commemorating World War II and the Battle for Caen, is 25 kilometres away. Outdoor activities are easily sorted with local horse riding, a couple of kilometres from the site, or with watersports including paddleboarding, sailing and sea kayaking at the nearby Normandy beaches, 10 kilometres away. You could also spend a day at the Ponds of Planquery fishing pools (15 kilometres), or take the kids to the Festyland amusement park (20 kilometres), themed around the events of 1066 and all that.
