The Schumannseck was the scene of the deadliest fighting of the Battle of the Bulge. For several weeks, American soldiers and the German army clashed in a devastating war of position that cost thousands of lives. The site still bears the scars of the fighting that took place there from 27 December 1944 to 21 January 1945. Your guide will lead you through the partially visible remains, including shell holes, trenches and bomb craters. Life-size historical photos of American and German soldiers and Luxembourg civilians illustrate the events of the time at various stations.
