Dead Man’s Corner Museum – Saint-Côme-du-Mont, Normandy, France
The Dead Man’s Corner Museum at Saint-Côme-du-Mont focuses its attention on the German paratroopers who used the building as their Regimental Command Post and first aid station at the time of D-Day invasion. For those interested in the exploits of the fallschirmjägers this is one of the best museums that you're likely to find.
