Manhay History 44 Museum

Welcome to the Manhay History 44 Museum, in the heart of Grandménil, in the Ardennes. This museum, entirely dedicated to the memory of the Battle of the Bulge, tells the story of the Manhay, Lierneux, and Erezée sector. Visitors will discover rich exhibits, authentic artifacts, and testimonies that shed light on the fighting of December 1944 and January 1945. A documentary reveals archival footage of the region in the aftermath of the battles.

The visit evokes the opposing military units around Manhay, from the 2nd SS Panzer Division Das Reich and the Volksgrenadiers to the 3rd Armored Division and the 75th Infantry Division. It also covers the history of the locality known as "Trou du Loup" (Wolf's Hole), the story of the B-24 bomber that crashed at La Fosse on December 25, 1944, and numerous displays of American and German equipment. The museum also sheds light on the daily lives of civilians in the Ardennes region caught up in the turmoil.

Guided tours are available for groups of fifteen or more by reservation. The museum regularly participates in historical reenactments. A shop offers souvenirs and a wide selection of books on the Second World War, available in several languages.
