About

The Arromanches 360 Circular Cinema immerses visitors in the pivotal 100‑day Battle of Normandy, projecting archival footage from nine large screens onto the cliffside, where the famed Mulberry harbour remnants rise. Each 20‑minute 360° film gives audiences a visceral look at the landings from the perspective of the soldiers, Italian cripples and the harbours’ ingenious design. Visitors step into a meticulously reconstructed harbour bunker complete with aircraft‑parking tracks, floating “whale” routes, and a torquing tide‑controlled platform. The experience blends history, immersive cinema and interactive exhibits aimed at all ages: school groups can explore primary‑source artefacts, while families enjoy guided tours, and lone explorers can spend an hour‑two‑hour exhibition. The site conveniently offers free entry for veterans, disabled people, school children under ten with adult, and other community groups, while standard admission is modest at €7.00‑€17.00 for adults and families.
