Located right next to the monument, the historical interpretation center presents the Battle of Vimy Ridge in two ways.
First, you can discover an exhibition with diagrams, photographs, maps, and some exhibits. You'll learn about the historical context from a political and military perspective, with numerous images showing the lunar landscapes of the trench line and No Man's Land. Books about the Battle of Vimy Ridge are also available for purchase at the reception desk.

Next, a superb Sound & Light show, using period videos, recounts the preparation for the offensive, the fighting, the advance of the troops, and the lives of soldiers during the battle. A video table and televisions allow you to relive these moments. Commentary is available in French, English, and German.
