About Memorial Museum of August 19, 1942
The Memorial Museum of August 19, 1942 commemorates the Dieppe Raid (Operation Jubilee), one of the most tragic Allied operations of World War II. Housed in a stunning 1826 Italian-style theater classified as a historic monument, the museum presents a powerful collection of uniforms, documents, photographs, and scale models from the ill-fated raid that saw over 6,000 Allied soldiers—primarily Canadian—attempt to storm the German-occupied beaches of Dieppe. The highlight is a deeply moving 40-minute documentary featuring archival footage and eyewitness accounts from survivors.

Second Lieutenant Edward V. Loustalot, one of 50 U.S. Army Rangers participating in the raid, became one of the first American soldiers killed in France during World War II when he heroically charged a machine gun nest after scaling the cliffs. His sacrifice marked the beginning of American ground combat losses in the European theater.
