Highlights

09:OOam Meet your driver-guide at your hotel (or nearby location). From Brussels drive over the Meuse river in Namur. Arrive in Bastogne. Snack lunch at the museum café (not incl.) See the Sherman tank, the McAuliffe square, the Patton square, the Nurses Memorial, and the Mardasson memorial. Walk to the foxholes and Bois Jacques before returning to Brussels (2h drive). Drive through village of Foy.
During this tour I shall introduce you to Belgium and the Ardennes region. We'll talk about history, education, economy, politics and more! As I'm not an expert in military history, the in-depth details about the Battle of the Bulge will be exposed to you at the exhibition via an original design interspersed with three “scénovisions”, authentic multi-sensorial and 3D dramatizations, which enable full immersion in History!

CAR: New Hybrid Peugeot 5008 (5-seater + 2 extra seat for children)

Itinerary

  • McAuliffe Square

    10 minsAdmission Ticket Included
    The McAuliffe Memorial in Bastogne is dedicated to the memory of General McAuliffe, defender of the city in 1944. He was the General who replied "Nuts!" when the Germans demanded for surrender. The words symbolize the resistance of the American encircled troops. The monument was carved by Miss Silvercruys, sister of the Belgian Ambassador to the US at the time. The work was inaugurated by the General in person. In 1947, the square where the memorial is standing was renamed McAuliffe Square. The square also contains the last memorial milepost on the "Patton Liberty Road" route from Utah beach Normandy to Bastogne.
  • Bastogne

    10 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Augusta Chiwy & Renée Lemaire Mémorial - Celebrated as true heroines after the war, two nurses left a vivid mark in the memory of the veterans and civilians trapped in the hell of Bastogne in the winter of 1944. They treated wounded, with the means at hand, and in a makeshift hospital, in the middle of the fighting.
  • Bastogne War Museum

    3 hoursAdmission Ticket Not Included
    The Bastogne War Museum offers a fresh perception in a modern and interactive framework of the causes, events and consequences of World War II through the lens of the Ardennes Counteroffensive - the "Battle of the Bulge". The Bastogne War Museum covers the Second World War, from its origins up to autumn 1944, and then focuses on the Battle of the Bulge. Key events of the war and the combatants' ordeal are reproduced here with the aim of clarifying the broad sweep of its history. The centre provides a very clear picture of how the civilians lived during the occupation, during the battle itself, and afterwards. The many consequences of what was probably one of the most serious battles in world history are very clearly described. Housed in a brand-new building displaying an adventurous architectural concept, the Museum is located in the Ardennes, south-east of Belgium, one of nature's unspoilt areas, rich in fauna and flora and offers spectacular scenery.
  • Mardasson Memorial

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Included
    The Mardasson memorial, known more simply as "Mardasson", is today is an imposing construction, in the form of a star, that serves as a reminder of the bitter resistance of American soldiers, surrounded in Bastogne at the time of the Ardennes Offensive (winter 1944-1945). Here, the American army paid a heavy price to war, as did German troops and civilians.
  • Foy(Đi ngang qua)

    Admission Ticket Free

Patton's U.S. Third Army, the 101st retook the town. A monument to the American paratroopers was built in 2004 at the edge of the Bois Jacques
