City Museum & Records Office

Portsmouth's D-Day Museum is Britain's only museum dedicated solely to covering all kinds of the D-Day landings in Normandy, France, on 6 June 1944. D-Day was a turning point in the Second World War, and a moment when the course of world events depended on the Allied troops taking part. FREE ADMISSION to the D-Day Museum for Portsmouth library card holders and their families! From 1 November 2009 to 31 January 2010, holders of a Portsmouth City Council library card - and their families - get into the D-Day Museum for free. You must bring the card with you when you visit the museum.
