Frommer's Review

The best Battle of the Bulge museum in either Belgium or Luxembourg displays a series of superb life-size dioramas depicting U.S. and German military forces. The finest of these portrays U.S. troops crossing the Sûre River near Diekirch in January 1945, a turning point in the battle. The dioramas afford an eerie insight into what it might have been like to be there, struggling and fighting through the snow. This realistic display is augmented by military equipment, uniforms, weapons, maps, and large items such as a tank, artillery pieces, and tracked vehicles. In addition, the museum covers Luxembourg's occupation and liberation, and the history of its army.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
