Every December, this little town celebrates the sacrifices made by the men of the 101st Airborne Division in the winter of 1944/45. Go for a commemorative hike through the fields where men dug foxholes during this battle which was also one of the coldest winters on record. Dress up in period clothing or just come to see the sights and sounds, visit the memorial or watch the reenactments; you will come away from this experience with a greater appreciation for history and the men and women who made it. There are many tours available or you can simply drive there on your own.

You don’t need to come in December to see the festivities either, you can visit any time of year and tour the museum.

Check it out, you will not be disapointed.
