The story of D-Day on your doorstep
Step aboard the last surviving Landing Craft Tank of D-Day, and walk through one of the most remarkable stories of the twentieth century — with 20% off your ticket, on us.
Just up the coast from us
A short journey, a huge story.
"How do you get an army across the English Channel and into France, when your enemy is well-armed, well-trained, and expecting you?"
Find out at The D-Day Story — Portsmouth's award-winning museum on Southsea Seafront, dedicated to the people, the places and the machinery of the 6th June 1944.
And because Portsmouth's naval heritage is our heritage too, we've arranged a 20% discount for every guest of the Royal Maritime Hotel.
What awaits you
Three reasons to visit.
LCT 7074
The last surviving Landing Craft Tank from D-Day. Once carried men and armour across the Channel — now sits at the heart of the museum, ready to walk through.
Interactive exhibits
Displays, films, artefacts and immersive experiences that let you get up close with the events, decisions and people behind the day that changed the war.
Beautifully curated
Personal stories from those who were there — soldiers, sailors, civilians — brought to life with care and told with weight. Two to three hours you won't forget.
