Cemetery for American soldiers who lost their lives during World War II, the Memorial houses a chapel and a museum
Behold this monumental cemetery, the resting place of 7,992 American soldiers who lost their lives in the Second World War. Imagine thousands of white crosses perfectly aligned on the lawn. The Memorial contains a chapel and a museum, the two buildings linked by an imposing colonnade decorated with the seals of the States and Territories of the Union. The pillars of the colonnade bear the names of the 450 missing persons whose bodies were never found.

Lieu de souvenir plein de sérénité et très bien entretenu. A l’entrée, une vaste esplanade d'où l'on surplombe tout le site et où se dresse l'un des mâts porte-drapeau. 7 992 soldats Américains sont inhumés sur vingt-trois hectares. Ce cimetière est aussi le lieu de repos des aviateurs abattus au-dessus de la région. Le Mémorial renferme une chapelle et un musée. Colonnade comprenant 12 paires de piliers rectangulaires. Beaux massifs de rhododendrons, parterres de rosiers roses et rouges. Ne pas manquer de voir ce lieu de recueillement.
