It is housed in a former renovated warehouse and consists largely of the articles vacated by the one hundred and ten American First Infantry Division soldiers who once admired ” R & R ” at the Schmetzs’ farm. The museum opened with loyal yet dramatic phrases of Mathilde and Marcel Schmetz, creators of the project. Marcel’s personal stories of what he experienced during WWII will bring you to tears. The artifacts accommodate confidential items given by several WWII Veterans from various units.
