It will be fine to just turn up. There is ample parking and a museum (if you so wish) besides the memorial itself. It is certainly a must if you are touring the battlefields as are the Lochagnor crater (the very start of the Battle of the Somme on 1st July 1916 and the Newfoundland Memorial (both of these I also reviewed recently) and the town of Albert. We visit the Somme quite often so we would be happy to answer other questions you may have. Trip Advisor does not permit the inclusion of any links but try searching on google for visit somme great war memorials for useful information Enjoy your visit.
Hello, we are travelling to France at the end of August and would like to have a one day stop-over in Somme to visit the memorial and battlefields. We will be travelling with a small dog though - could you please advise if the dogs are allowed on memorial sites (on a short lead of course). Many thanks.

Greetings, There are four parts to this place of contemplation. The Memorial itself, the grounds and the visitor centre are free. There is a small admission charge to the museum. Various prices which can be found on their website, but 6euros for an adult, 3 for a child Hope this helps. Great place to visit.
