Treat yourself to a journey into the past and into other dimensions! This unique exhibition is suitable for young and old alike. Here you can discover history in a new way.

The Musée Bataille et Châteaux - Battle of the Bulge and castle models comprises both the exhibition illustrating a historical moment of the Second World War, the Battle of the Bulge, and the exhibition of models of Luxembourg's castles built on a scale of 1:100 in the converted rooms of Clerf Castle.

Using documents, uniforms, authentic weapons and reconstructed scenes, the exhibition illustrates the historical moment of the Second World War, the Battle of the Bulge. The Clervaux diorama by Claude JOACHIM, which depicts a scene from this battle around the castle of Clerf in a detailed model, forms the centrepiece between the war elements and the exceptional exhibition of 22 castles and fortresses in Luxembourg, which have been designed and depicted with precision craftsmanship.
