About WW2.TOURS

Explore World War II Historic Sites

WW2.TOURS is a growing guide to World War II historic sites around the world.

From battlefields and bunkers to museums, memorials, military sites, historic buildings, ships and aircraft, the goal is to make important places connected to World War II easier to discover and visit.

The site was created out of a personal interest in military history and a fascination with the places where history actually happened. Rather than focusing only on dates and events, WW2.TOURS connects historical events with the physical locations that can still be explored today.

Places With a Story

Each place is selected because it has a meaningful connection to World War II and offers something worth discovering. Some locations are preserved exactly as they were, while others are museums or memorials that document what happened there.

The site covers the war from different perspectives and across many countries — from the opening campaigns of 1939 and the Battle of Britain to the D-Day landings, the Eastern Front, the Pacific War and the final battles of 1945.

Built for People Who Want to Visit

WW2.TOURS is not intended to be just another list of historical events. It is designed for people who want to see the places, walk the ground and understand the history behind them.

For selected destinations, we also act as your personal tour guide, offering guided experiences at historically significant locations. These tours are designed to provide the historical background, stories and context that help bring the places to life.

For other destinations, WW2.TOURS helps you discover the sites, plan your visit and, where available, find suitable local tours and experiences.

Whether you are planning a dedicated World War II trip, looking for a particular historic site, or simply want to discover the history behind a place you are visiting, WW2.TOURS is built to help you find it.

The database is continuously expanding, with new historic sites, museums, memorials and other locations being researched and added.

History is not only found in books. Sometimes, you can stand where it happened.
