Description
After the Battle of the Ardennes, on 4 February ’45, this locality was chosen as the resting-place for American as well as German soldiers. However, in 1947 the remains of American soldiers were either repatriated to the United States or transferred to the newly-established American military cemeteries at Henri-Chapelle and Neuville-en-Condroz. The remains of German soldiers were gathered together in Recogne.(text source by Guy Blockmans/OPT)
