Let nature inspire and unite! Our meeting rooms are surrounded by nature and benefit from its positive effects on our minds. The Bastogne War Museum is part of the Liberation Route Europe, a cultural route recognized by the Council of Europe, connecting the main memorials of the liberation of the continent between 1943 and 1945. Several hiking and biking routes start from our museum, passing by essential historical monuments. Complete your outdoor experience with a picnic basket or a spit-roasted suckling pig, accompanied by a tasting of local beers!

With the proceeds from our events and conferences, we support initiatives for the documentation and archiving of elements related to World War II and the Battle of the Ardennes.

Facilities are abundant, with a large parking lot of 200 spaces on-site and two professional kitchens to prepare the most delicious dishes. Choose an unforgettable and meaningful experience at the Bastogne War Museum!
