Bastogne War Museum

Located close to the famous Mardasson Memorial, the Bastogne War Museum is the principal memorial dedicated to the Second World War in the Ardennes and Belgium with more than 150 000 visitors per year. Through the use of scenography, witness testimonial, multi-media installation the route through the exhibition appeals not only to the intellect but to the emotions, giving visitors the feeling that this story belongs to each and every one of us.

Visited with our two kids (7 and 9), and we all thought the museum was fantastic. For my generation and that of our kids, the events of WW2 are very removed. But when you learn about what happened, and that it wasn't all that long ago, it's a very humbling educational experience. The museum is really well curated, and the exhibition leads you through the lead up and events of this part of WW2 in a logical and very engaging manner. My kids liked their individual audio guides and especially the way the story is narrated by the 4 perspectives of the local boy, his teacher, the American soldier and the German soldier. The theatrical displays are really good (to give your mind a break) because there is just so much info to absorb and it is tiring. We spent 3hrs in the museum. It is scary that the events of today seem so similar to those in the lead up to WW2... We also visited the Verdun WW1 museum the next day, and it is incredulous that the world didn't learn it's lesson the first time round.

Manhay History 44 Museum

Reviewed By thornburrow

Reviews on the internet said it would be good and we ourselves were delighted. Easy to find and set in beautiful countryside. Small but well designed and inexpensive. The museum's dioramas are terrific - so much care has been taken to tell the story using uniforms and relics lovingly donated to the museum and filmed backdrops using reinactors to set the scene. The short film-show in one room brought to life the evocative story of this village and local area during the dark, snowy days of the Battle of the Ardenne - clearly life was miserable and frightening for the troops and civilians. There's lovely staff, plenty of parking plus an interesting shop - and a tank right outside the door. Perfect!
