SUMMARY:Battle of the Bulge History Experience Weekend
DESCRIPTION:NOTE: History Experiences on Saturday and Sunday are SOLD OUT for the Weekend\, but the museum is still open for General Admission.\nPlease note that access to the encampment area is ONLY available to experience participants. General Admission visitors are not allowed to walk to the encampment area due to capacity and safety restrictions.\nJoin us on January 17th and 18th for the Battle of the Bulge History Experience Weekend at the American Heritage Museum to honor the 81st Anniversary of the German offensive siege that surrounded and cut-off the Allies in the Ardennes region of Europe during the Winter of 1944/1945. \nOver 40 re-enactors of the 101st Airborne and other Allied forces will be entrenched in our woods\, encircled by over 40 German re-enactors in opposing positions\, recreating the dire weeks of uncertainty that took place eight decades ago before the Allies were able to push forward. You’ll experience what it would have felt like to be stranded in the cold forests like soldiers in 1944. There will be skirmishes between the Allied and Axis forces through the day. \n  \nYour Transportation is a Real WWII Military Vehicle!\nAdding to the experience of going back in time\, all guests will be shuttled from the museum to the encampments and back on a 1943 vintage M3 Half Track or 1943 Dodge Command Car\, like ones used by soldiers at that time. You’ll be transported from the American Heritage Museum to our wooded encampment area and will go “behind enemy lines” to see what it was like to be a soldier during this harrowing time in WWII history. \n  \nPurchase Your Ticket to Winter 1944!\nNOTE: History Experiences on Saturday and Sunday are SOLD OUT for the Weekend\, but the museum is still open for General Admission.\nPlease note that access to the encampment area is ONLY available to experience participants.
