Description

The story our museum tries to factually tell, is the one of daily life in the field of the opposing German and American soldiers, as well as of for the civilians caught in the cross-fire. It is the dramatic story of human suffering, of tragedy, of courage and bravery, of unselfishness and valor. It is the story of human beings caught in extreme and sometimes desperate situations. As a result, almost 60 years after those tragic events, the museum often becomes a platform and gathering place for returning veterans from two former opposing sides, as well as their descendants, to "re-digest" history and to meet as friends. Along that same line, the museum fulfills an important mission in fostering mutual bonds of friendship between Germany, the United States, and Luxembourg by jointly-remembering!
