White Wehe Stone Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The battle in the Hürtgenwald raged here in 1944/1945. If you look closely, you can still find testimonials. Such as bunker remains etc.
Meanwhile there are beavers here again, cheerfully knocking down trees and damming the woe.

Paul Boesch, German-born company commander of the 8th US Division, called this valley "Death Valley". The upper part was followed by the "Purple Heart Hollow", both names reminiscent of the lossy fights.
