Military heritage in Luxembourg
As of the first Luxembourgish militia up to today’s modern army, Luxembourg’s military history has been marked by worldwide events. The consecutive operations of the Battle of the Bulge are displayed at the National Museum of Military History. The National Museum of the Resistance describes the fate of clandestines during World War II. The military cemeteries of Luxembourg-Hamm and Sandweiler, as well as the many memorials, confirm the presence of numerous foreign troops on the Luxembourgish territory.
