Afternoon: 385th Bomb Group Memorial Museum, Perlé

🕒 from 15:00
📍 6 Rue de l’Église, L-8826 Perlé

We will visit the 385th Bomb Group Memorial Museum, which commemorates the tragic mid-air collision of two B-17 US bombers on 12th July 1944 over Perlé. The crash claimed the lives of 18 crew members and remains a significant chapter of Luxembourg’s wartime history.

The museum preserves this memory with unique exhibits and an impressive memorial honouring the fallen.

Open event: AOPA Luxembourg will offer a drink to members and friends visiting the museum.
