Bois de la Paix - Bastogne 31.12.2015
Le Bois de la Paix a été réalisé dans le cadre de la commémoration du 50ème anniversaire de la Bataille des Ardennes. Installé sur un terrain de 3 Ha, il compte environ 4000 arbres d’espèces présentes sur le plateau de Bastogne. Ces arbres ont été plantés de façon à faire apparaître sur le sol, vu du ciel, le sigle de l’UNICEF : la mère et l’enfant, symbole de la tendresse universelle. Ce bois est dédié aux combattants et civils belges et alliés qui ont combattu pour la liberté de notre pays. Les vétérans américains, à leur retour sur la terre de leurs combats, ont l’occasion de placer une plaquette avec leur nom et leur unité au pied d’un arbre. (Source: bastogne.be )
They were dedicated to the American veterans who fought in the Ardennes, Belgian combatants and all the civilians and military who died in the winter of 1944-45.

DE PERSONAGES DIE U BEGELEIDEN BIJ UW BEZOEK AAN HET BASTOGNE WAR MUSEUM
Beleef uw bezoek door de ogen van vier personages die de Slag om de Ardennen beleefden. Maak in hun verhalen kennis met de grote geschiedenis van Bastenaken en zijn inwoners tijdens de winter van 1944.
Met de audiogids volgt u het parcours van deze personages. Niets wees erop dat ze elkaar zouden ontmoeten. Ze geven elk hun kijk op het conflict en halen vrolijke, maar ook trieste herinneringen op. U wordt ondergedompeld in hun geschiedenis en krijgt de indruk hen goed te kennen. De personages zijn geïnspireerd op waargebeurde feiten. Waarschijnlijk zijn hun persoonlijke verhalen niet precies gelopen zoals hier wordt verteld. Toch zijn ze, net zoals de volledige inhoud van het Bastogne War Museum, gevalideerd door een gerenommeerd wetenschappelijk comité. Dat waakt erover dat er zo dicht mogelijk wordt aangesloten bij de historische realiteit.
