D-Day Omaha Museum

For more than half a century, a Michel Brissard and his two sons, driven by a deep passion for history, devoted their lives to uncovering the forgotten traces of the D-Day landings. Through meticulous research and countless excavations across the Normandy countryside, the Brissard family unearthed remarkable treasures: rare weapons, equipment from both Allied and German forces, medical supplies, and even an exceptionally rare Enigma machine.
