With my interest in all things WWII, I ranked my journey to the Normandie coast and its many museums and monuments to those who fought in the war, at the top of my list. I used Bayeaux as my base to explore the beaches. It is a lovely little town, and I much preferred it to Caen, when comparing the cities themselves.

Books and lectures, I'm sure, don't do what happened here justice. Something I've gotta see.
wow, someone else who's been to the spartan Hotel de la Gare here...even if you did not stay the night there...;-) but yes, Bayeux is the perfect base town for one's Norman expeditions. Somber but interesting trip, for sure.
Nice page!
