Has anyone spent Christmas time in Normandy? In particular, I%26#39;m interested in knowing whether the principal sites such as the D-day museums and beaches, the American cemetery, and Mt. Saint Michel are open on Christmas day and the days immediately before and after. Thanks for any information.

Hi SteveA,
Have spent Christmas in Normandy but didn%26#39;t get up to much on that visit. The best I can suggest is to contact the place where we stayed on our visit (www.la-ducrie.com) for some local advise. You can email directly from the website.
Good luck!

Mont St Michel and all of the landing beaches are open 365 days a year. You will find that the various museums are closed on CHristmas day.
See the reports on La Ducrie who do tailored Christmas breaks.

Christmas is pretty quiet in France - everyone still gathers in families and consequently the hotels offer nothing very special. The weather is also often bleak but there are always people who brave the cold to go into the sea on Christmas Day.
The Memorial at Caen is a superb and emotionally exacting experience.
