    In 1944, this Tiger 213 tank was used by the Peipers 1st SS Panzer Regiment for defense during the Battle of the Bulge. When the troops withdrew, it was left behind, along with five other tanks.



    In 1945 all wrecks were cleared by the Americans. However, this tank was spared because it was exchanged for a bottle of cognac. The tank was placed as a monument on the square in La Gleize.

      La Gleize is located in the middle of the northern part of the Belgian Ardennes. The Museum December 44 (where you can start your walking tour) is located in a historic building in the center of the village. It is completely dedicated to the Ardennes Offensive. Maybe a nice combination, pay attention to the opening times!

        The December 44 Historical Museum retraces one of the most tragic battles of the Battle of the Bulge through one of the most important collections of authentic objects in Europe.
