british war cemetery印象

Nothing to Dislike...A place to think, to pray, to try to understand why they fought for and make sure nothing like this can happen again!

I visited this cemetery a number of years ago and it has lost none of its emotional impact. Situated on the ring road just a short walk from our town centre hotel, it is well worth an hour or so of your time. The regimented rows and columns of clean white marble headstones set in immaculately kept gardens many marked with the 6 June 1944 are a vivid reminder of the cost paid by our ancestors. Whether you lost a relative or not, if you are in the area do take some time to remember the fallen.

The cemetery was easy to find on the ring road outside town. It was kept in pristine condition and rightly so to honour the fallen, not just from Britain but other commonwealth countries. It was hard to hold back emotions when reading the ages of the fallen. Every child should visit and understand the destruction of war.

Sad to know so many men were killed but thanks to them we are free. Seeing the names of not just british but zgerman soilders makes tge war more than a story in a book . It brings to mind how many families lost a loved one in the fight againdt Hitler.

Situated on the outskirts of Bayeux, a must visit especially if you are in Normandy to see the WW2 landing beaches etc. this well kept cemetary shows part of the human cost of the war. I found the young ages of these soldiers quite moving. In contrast to the American cemetary at Omaha beach there is no flash visitor centre but this is not required. Just visit and think about the sacrifice these men and boys made.

Seeing all the rows and rows of white headstones and the young people who never had the chance to live their lives - it is a place to wander around and reflect and say thanks for who knows what sort of world we would live in without their courage.

Always felt a connection to WW2 and Normandy in particular,without reason as I've no known family who fought at it yet as years went by I became more and more interested and promised myself I'd visit the place where so many brave men gave their lives for freedom. Just entering the cemetery gave me an overwhelming sense of peace and loss, I walked along the gravestones and reading the names, regiments, ages and verses on the headstones of those lost was very emotional and brought real tears to my eyes.This is a beautiful place to reflect on your own self, to bring you down to earth, it is a fitting resting place to our fallen heroes and wonderfully maintained. I remember telling my son that all of his generation should be made to visit these places, he's coming with me next year.

Any war cemetery is a cause for reflection on the sacrifices of generations past. This is a beautifully maintained cemetery and it is worth spending at least two hours. Young manhood lost in the cause of freedom.
-
A beautiful and fitting resting place for the brave British and Commonwealth troops who bravely gave their lives in the liberation of Normandy.

We visited British War Cemetery on a bright spring day to pay tribute to the British troops who lost their lives in the battles of WWII. So many young lives sacrificed for our freedom... some of them were only 18 years old...We should never forget them. This is a must visit, if you happen to be in Bayeux on the way to Normandy beaches. Very sad, but unforgettable experience... The Cemetery is a walking distance from the Bayeax Museum of the Battle of Normandy where you can park your car.
