Join us on December 28th and 29th for the Battle of the Bulge Commemorative Weekend at the American Heritage Museum to honor the 80th 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. Re-Enactors of the 101st Airborne and others will be entrenched in encampments in our woods, recreating the dire weeks of uncertainty that took place eight decades ago before the Allies were able to push forward. Adding 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.

Discounted Advance Sale Tickets packages include American Heritage Museum admission plus the special encampment admission and transportation to and from the site on the Half-track or Command Car. 

  • Adult - $40.00
  • Senior (62+) - $36.00
  • Veterans/Military - $36.00
  • Children 16 & Under - $20.00

*Please note: Participants should be physically fit enough to board and disembark a 1943 vintage military vehicle without assistance or accommodation. Due to the rough nature of the encampment zone and the potential for cold & inclement weather, we do not recommend the experience for guests in poor health, with mobility or circulation issues, and children under the age of 3.
