Just after midnight on the night of June 5-6, the two bridges of Ranville-Bénouville were captured by the British 5th Parachute Brigade after a short battle. Pegasus was their emblem. A small part of France was liberated. Major Howard had won the Battle of Pegasus and those in need had a field for gliders to land on, a movable steel bridge, a house on the water's edge, and... the Gondrée family, who at 11 a.m. saw Lord Lovat (1911- 1995) and his 'Green Berets' arrive, to the sound of a bagpipe. Now café-museum Gondrée is a meeting point for veterans and tourists. (Michelin)

The Pegasus Bridge near Bénouville owes its name to the flying horse in the arms of the 6th British Airborne Division, which landed here on June 6, 1944 and conquered the important bridgehead for Operation Overlord - the landing of Allied troops in Normandy. A small museum recalls this story and informs about details.
