Holland & Bastogne 1944–45
Bastogne War Museum & Mardasson Memorial
Museum · memorial
The story
The best single museum of the Bulge, beside the star-shaped American memorial. Do it first: it gives the siege its shape before you go into the woods.
What to look for
Walk up to the Mardasson after the museum and look north-east — the Bois Jacques is the dark line on the skyline.
