I had the opportunity to visit the American Cemetery on a school trip and I am so glad I took the chance! You start your visit to the cemetery by going through a small museum that can give you a little background on the history of the American influence in Normandy. There are also some very touching exhibits that are worth a moment of silence before you walk out into the cemetery. I could have spent all day just strolling through the cemetery and exploring what there is to see. My friend brought several American flags that we placed next to some graves. If I had been able to stay for one more hour I would have taken a walk down to the beach. Wheelchairs may need to stay on pathways and find alternative routes, but it will be a worthy trip. There are few to no places to eat so do not plan on eating at the cemetery. My visit was on a rainy day which really set the tone of the cemetery but it is more of an outdoor activity so a rain-free day is probably the desired weather. If you are in Normandy PLEASE visit the cemetery, it is such a reminder of our history as two countries. I would not have missed it for anything.

One of the most beautiful places we've seen and extremely humbling! A MUST see for all Americans visiting this area of France. Exquisitely manicured. A very fitting resting place for our men who gave their lives for freedom!

We almost stumbled upon this cemetery, having driven close and thought we would pop in! Don't expect a large village fanfare just a few signs, then BAM, you're here. Amazingly well kept, pristine, poignant and a lovely memorial to the fallen American who rest in France, having lost this lives September to November 1918. Time well spent in these tranquil surroundings.

Wonderful tribute to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for America. Beautiful and serene, was truly an experience that I will always remember

Quiet and vast cemetery with perfectly manicured gardens and white marble headstones of over 14000 people who died for their country during WW1.The cemetery is like a living monument to honour these people who never made it back home.Rest in peace all who were placed here.
