Map Room Tour

Visit Southwick House and the famous D-Day Wall Map.

Preserved in its original position and set for H-Hour, D-Day. Southwick House was the forward headquarters of SHEAF where D-Day was planned and launched in June 1944.

In the iconic D-Day Map Room, General Dwight D Eisenhower, surrounded by the Supreme Commanders, took the decision to first postpone and then to launch D-Day, with the words “OK – Let’s Go!”.

Map Room visitors will find themselves immersed in the atmosphere of the day as they learn about the enormous pressure Ike was under as he took that momentous decision.
