Our meeting rooms are surrounded by nature and its positive effects on our minds. The Bastogne War Museum is also part of the Liberation Route Europe, a cultural route recognised by the Council of Europe. The route connects the most important memorial sites of the liberation of the continent between 1943 and 1945.
