CROEN CONSTRUCTION

Wow! From entering to exiting this museum, I enjoyed every aspect of it. The lady that greeted me at the ticket desk was very pleasant and explained the museum and the recommendation to watch the opening video. The museum itself is located in an underground tunnel down a flight of steps. Once down there, the displays are all neatly laid out. There is also a timeline of events on the wall which is brief but carries sufficient information to follow what was happening. The museum exits into the gardens opposite the basilica. I spent about one and a half hours there, well worth the €8 entrance fee.

The Somme 1916 museum has a tunnel that is 10 metres underground and runs for about 250 meters under the beautiful town of Albert. It has displays and items from the WW1 Battlefields, it’s very well constructed. It also has a virtual WW1 trenches walkway that has sounds & flashes of light that you would have seen and heard if you were there in WW1.

This museum is excellent. If you are in the area you have to visit. Couldn’t believe how long it took us and how big the museum is all underground definitely a must see.

Offered much more than expected. Extremely well build exhibition. The fact that exhibition was built in 1938 era air raid shelter made it even more awesome. Well worth visit and the park you end os superb too

Marvellous museum in a very creative location. There are many things to see, including a video that gets your visit off to a good start. There is much information and much to see. This is one of the very best WW1 museums we have ever visited. Please note that there are a lot of steps initially down to the exhibits below in the tunnels. At the end of your visit, you exit into a lovely memorial garden. We would thoroughly recommend.

Must visit for history /WWI !! great collection and reconstruction of the horrible trench war . Indian. 🥇❤️

An excellent assembly of actual artifacts collected from the battle fields, trench art collection very impressive as well as all items on display. Strongly recommend

I didnt visite it but my boyfriend got in. For WWI lovers it’s a great please to visit. He paid 8€ entrance. This is next to the Cathedral, which from my point of view, is a must visit place as well.
